wat about the hose clamp that holds it all in? it looked pretty hard to undo in that little spot! but i''l give it a crack, it may be the supply or return hoses yet but will find out when it gets pulled out.

havent done it myself but i do know that there is no need to drop the tank, it all lifts out of the tank in the boot (have a look and that will make sense).
btw, your stacker is on the way!

a lot of the fuel tank covers in the AUs have been pot rivetet in, which woul require drilling and the dange of drilling into teh fuel tank, so take a pick.
droppoing teh fuel tank in itself is easy and takes around 5min to do. od start with disconnecting the fuel feed, return and breather lines and then simple undo teh two big shackle bolts, which holds the tank in. undoing the big locking ring on top of teh fuel tank is 1000 times easier outside the car than through the boot access pannel.
