OK Matt, here's the deal- Flip open your fuel door access (Panel), like when you are fueling. Reach up thru there and theres a 3/8" nut in each corner (9/16 wrench). Easy to get to . Remove those nuts and the whole fuel door lifts up and out. Theres a plug on the front of the tank at the bottom for draining the fuel.
If you have 5 gals if fuel in the tank- No Prob. If theres a lot of fuel in the tank......Better find some clean plastic 55 gal drums!
If you need to take out the tank, check the archives here for info on that's done, or you can email me. Hope this helps
