cheers mate, hows things with you?? hows grendon?




how do you take the fuel tank out?? i can imagine its pretty easy but what are te basic steps of doing it?

13mm socket, can take out earlier tanks without disconnecting anything aslong as the bit of pipe underneath is long enough.
(tilt it back and wedge it up, don't if theres more than half a tank)

[bennetj]

so i will not have to disconect the fuel tank or drain it at all??

Fingers crossed you won't have to disconect, but if the pipe below short then you may have to remove it, but it's not to difficult, if you want come by and I'll help you
