Default Re: Gas in the bilge

After I THOROUGHLY flushed my old tank out with water I cut a couple holes on each side with a hole saw. I then strung a chain through the holes. I placed two 4x4 timbers across the gunnels side by side with a floor jack on top of the timbers. I then shackeled the chains together across the floor jack and popped the tank out by pumping the jack slowly. It's a SNUG fit coming out so take your time so you don't crack your deck like I did.
