Trying to drop the tank, but it's laughing at me

[Tinker]

Thanks guys. I'll be working on this tomorrow. Maybe I can get far enough along to finally hear the engine run...

thats why i went to a plastic tank and run the cat filter and high efficiency 4.3 oils as prefilters....that and i run blends most of the year.

the oem ffm is a pos from my experience...with away over priced undersized filter for a easy to contaminate situation when changed as well.

But I thought diesel wasn't flammable...

It came down with a good bit of coaxing. Must not have been dropped before. The original foam pads were holding the tank in place even with ~60lbs of fuel in it. That's some impressive adhesion.

Every tank I dropped was like that. I thought they all must be. I think I posted about rhe same thing years ago. One of the Suburbans was really stuck.
