Cleared the crap out of the boot and got tools together. Had to go and buy yet another Stanley knife as I can't find any of the dozens I already own. After this mug of tea I'm gonna cut a hole in my boot.

Cutting the hole is the way to go, the amount of times now I would have had to drop the tank don't bear thinking about

No way was I dropping the tank on my own on the driveway. Hole cut, bit of a clean, liberally soaked in Plusgas. I'll give it a while to soak.

Tenebreaux · Dec 14, 2019

Oh, btw, I found two Stanley knives when I went to dig out the Plusgas.

I used to work for Keyline, left all my knifes at home each time, almost weekly had another knife, so I have about 40 knocking about in the hose and shed... but can I find one when I need it???

Those nuts on the top of the pump do NOT want to come apart. Another soak.

Only had to do mine once so far. It isn't heavy when empty. Not a hard job. Hardest part os draining it!

Tenebreaux · Dec 14, 2019

And done. No leaks that I can see, all running well. Ended up with a blow torch to crack the nuts apart.

Foolishly let my son borrow it, he hasn’t even left me his disco 4, just some old works kuga !

And the test drive.....

Then check for leaks before sealing it up

Wont take long to drain it if a V8 just let it tick over for a while.

Yeah, gonna leave it unzipped for a week. Still haven't decided how I'm going to seal it yet. Seems dumb to weld it if they go regularly.

RangeRoller dt · Dec 14, 2019

You had a VDO pump right?
Dopeys kept going coz he kept buying cheap pumps. They don’t last 6 months usually. Something missing from OE design on them too.

I got some gutter seal, it's a strip with one side that's sticky did a good job sealing it, if I have to get in again just use a sharp knife

Think outside, no box required.
