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.

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

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!

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

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.

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.

Nope, bought a cheap one. Funds are tight with crimbo coming up.
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
