I've got an 86 syncro - manual transmission and am wondering about secrets to the removal of the gas tank. The following has occured: - rusty corroded tank straps removed - filler pipe loosened and about to be removed - coolant hoses out of the way - venting hoses - not yet removed - fuel lines - pretty much removed - tank drained. The tank seems pretty soild in its spot - how do I begin the process of pulling it out once the vent lines are undone? thanks, BT |
