Is there a one line diagram somewhere for the fuel system? When your laying on your back it's easy to get confused about what goes where and it is not easy to trace out.

Jon,
It is not all that confusing when you are under there. (Says a guy that has had his tanks down too many times.)

Three lines of advice.
1 - If the plugs won't loosen, get a pump and pull the fuel out and into a 50gal drum. Get the tanks empty.
2 - Take the fill pipe down first and put it back in last.
3 - Get a set of cargo straps from Hazard Fright to lower and then lift the tanks. If you try to do it with any kind of jack, the jack has to be where you want to be. (Straps 7~10$ find a coupon)

While you are there, replace every bit of rubber you can reach.
