| Subject: | Re: Removing tank filler during rebuild |
Its below freezing here and I was wondering if it would be better to try to warm
up the tank filler before trying it. What temperature was it when you removed
yours? Did you notice any buckling or bending of the tank or skin during the
removal?

I was able to get both of mine out with a piece of plywood that I wrapped in duct
tape (to keep splinters from falling into the tank). It was the same tool
I made to screw the filler in, in the first place.
Here's a picture: http://picasaweb.google.com/Patrick.Hoyt/601XLFuelTankFillerFix?authkey=Gv1sRgCLaSv_q6zKafRg#5151627062448202034
As I recall, it was plywood from one of the shipping crates. Was probably 70 degrees
in my shop at that time. I used a pair of vise-grips for leverage and
didn't have any trouble.
