I need a little advise. I am trying to remove the fuel tank off a '87 GMC Jimmy, does anyone have any tips on how to do this. I already removed both metal straps that hold the tank and I also have the tank on a floor jack stand. I lowered the jack to let the tank drop, but it stayed suspended in place. What step am I forgetting. Oh, I also removed the rubber coupling that was holding it to the side neck (where you fill up with fuel). I am stumped! Any tips would be helpful.
