    Remove vent, fill and fuel line, siphon gas out, unhook fuel sender wires, take bolts out of 4 brackets and it will lift strait out.

    Take strap material and screw it down where the aluminum hold down bracket were into the tank. Great lifting handles just make sure most of fuel is out.

    Pull out the fuel sending unit and stick your fingers in the hole and grab the fuel neck on the other side. I just did mine, it is a tight fit and seems impossible at first but if you keep it straight it comes out pretty easy.

    After unhooking everything, mine pulls almost straight out. Easiest tank I’ve ever pulled. It’s a 36 gal tank.

    A strap is a BIG help and a buddy would be a help too
