• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

How Do I Remove My Tank? 630 Sms

Okay, I have looked at the pictures in the shop manual and for whatever reason, I just haven't been able to do it!

Can anyone give me a better description of what has to happen? Maybe I'm being to gentle because I don't want to break one of those parts...Maybe I'm pulling on the wrong part...HELP!

There is the rubber hose that leads to the injector. At the end of the rubber hose there is a black plastic doohickey that bends at a 90 degree angle which appears to be the part that goes into the pump.

Does this whole black plastic doohickey come out? do I just take the doohickey off the rubber hose and leave the doohickey connected to the tank?

When I finally do disconnect the tank is gasoline gonna shoot everywhere?

Thanks in advance!fuel tank.JPG
 
You mean that's not clear to you? LOL!!! I read it five times and I'm still confused. Hopefully somebody who'd done this before stops by soon. I had these same questions the other day.
 
Yeah I didn't get that part either. I just removed the tank and disconnected the hose at it's other end near the frame :D

looks like a standard FI fitting, the outer ring should move towards the tank to release the hose, like a clip.

So you're saying to push that small black outer ring (see red arrow) in towards the fuel pump then the hose will come out?

That sounds like what you're saying, but I just wanna be sure before I try taking the tank off again. I'm tired of undoing everything but that clip and holding the tank up in one hand while I fiddle with the fitting with the other! :banghead:

that is how FI hoses generally detatch. they usually require a special "tool" on cars, but it looks like that ring may be the release. SOMETHING most likely has to move towards the tank, and since the manual doesn't call for a tool, thats most likely it on the hose already.
