Removing Gas Tank Question
I am trying to remove my gas tank on my 29 CC Pickup and can't get a wrench on the inside of the two bolts on each side of the tank at the door post. Any idea's on what type of wrench to use?

Re: Removing Gas Tank Question
A fire wrench will work. Then you won’t need to worry about which steel wrench to use until you put it back on.

Re: Removing Gas Tank Question
Use penetrating oil on the whole series of bolts and fasteners and wait. Then use a 'dog bone' wrench. You may have to reverse the position and may even have to heat the wrench and bend it straighter a little if necessary.
As another member stated, flame and gas tanks do not mix well. |

Re: Removing Gas Tank Question
Thanks Guys, I managed to get the tank removed. I heated and then bent a old wrench to get it on the nuts inside the door post.
