The gas tank is held on by two brackets and six bolts. It's fairly easy to drop but disconnecting all of the line tank lines is a pain. Like Dub said, avoid smoking.Originally Posted by evillecutter
Before dropping the gas tank, I would pull the fuel filter and have a friend turn the ign. while you have the fuel line aimed toward a bucket or something. Then you'll be absolutely sure the pump is out and it's not a plugged line closer to the engine.

The tank drops at an angle already, one side before the other. You probably could get to the fuel pump without dropping the tank completely.who said i had friends? kidding
