I came across a leak the other day and traced it to a rotten hose on the right side attached to the expansion tank. As I worked away on the one at the "T" the other hose from the expansion tank broke off where I could not see to replace it. My question is.. Is there a way or a trick to getting at the connections under the tank without dropping the tank? If not.. Are there any suggestions on how to drop the tank with as little grief as possible from someone who has done it in the past. I was also wondering what problems will arise from this leak in the system? It seems to be working ok right now. As long as I don't' fill up.
