Lets see some paint jobs

first concert?
Donovan in 1969
Went with my youngest aunt and her "friend".
big boobs, pot smoke, loud music.
I was ruined for life,
no wonder I turned out like I did.

ok guys how did it get from paint jobs to concerts? Are you guys reading paint job to something else? did I spell it wrong at one time
my paint job is finished and he's going to start my tank again can't wait until he finishes.
Then hes going to do my spoiler and then my bottom piece, Im thinking of changing my radiator cover just to make it more simple to do.

Seriously, the Who in Saratoga Performing Arts Center, 31,000 people with two girls on a blanket on the lawn. It doesn't get any better than that!

You guys just made me laugh,talk about blunt and I was trying to be discreate
I'm going Monday to go pick up my finish painted pieces but I don't want to put on my Rocket untill all my pieces are done.
How hard is it to take my tank off, and put my new one on when its fiished? What is the best way to empty my tank? does any one have some step by step for dummys?

 

[HellFire]

I think I'd use the old "siphon and dump" method. It's a little old fashioned, but reliable.

Loosen the nut on the bolt at the back.
Raise the tank and prop it up with your prop wand.
While looking under the tank,take a paint pen or something,
and mark where the hoses you're about to disconnect go.
remove tank.
It won't loose more than a thimbleful of gas that was in the lines.
Thats the best I can remember,
it's been awhile since I pulled mine off the first time.
Seems like I use to have to take the bearclaw off too.

Now pulling the pump out,
thats an adventure in itself the first time.
For that, you will need to drain your tank.
HellFires method is the same one I use.

After you have all the gas out you can get out,
flip it over on a towel or something and loosen the lock nuts that hold the pump assembly in.
Lift it out about an inch or two so you can see what you're dealing with.
You'll see a metal rod that the float is on the end of.
I used a big ziptie to go around and under the float to lift it out FIRST.
Then pulled the rest out.
Might as well bend it about 1/4 inch while you got it out to correct the gas light coming on early.

Thats the best I can remember right off the top.
Hope it helps.
Can't wait to see the finished product.
peace,
