Hi All,
Well, if cleaning up the mess from the new leak in the driveway wasn't enough fun, pumped the tank out, now can't get the tank to come out. Large cradle hold down was rusted away to almost nothing, literally fell out (Canadian winters), don't see any other hold down at the back (driver side). I've tried the thin board underneath to ease going past "the bump", even tried pressure with a come a long. Nothing. It's sitting rattly loose but is so tight at the top it won't budge. Any other tips before I cut the floor??
Thanks,
Seann
Maybe cut an access hole in the divider to look for another strap? Hate to see the floor cut.
Good luck, Tom
Some of the MCI's had a outlet for adding a auxiliary tank with a plate and 6 or 8 bolts and you had to pick up the tank level for space about 1 inch then it come out, if your tank is one of the few with the feed and return on back it becomes a major job
