Re: Removing Gas Tank from a 23rd Series Deluxe Club

What I did was siphon out the gas into 5 gal cans. Find the junction where the wire from the sending unit connects along the frame and disconnect it. On mine near the rear tire.

The '40 has a pipe from the gas cap to a short rubber hose connector to the tank spout which needs to be undone, but you might not have that on a '50. After loosening the straps a bit, I put a board on my floor jack to support the tank and let it down gently. Once the straps are loose enough I can unhook on the front side of the tank.

Again that's for a '40 not a '50.
