Yep, Ole Red...you were right again as to the possibility of removing my gas tank through the driver's side ski locker hatch. I spread the task out over a few days...as I had to be careful not to over strain my back, neck, and shoulder muscles! Moreover, I had to cut out a similar access opening on the pass...
