Re: how to safely remove a gas tank in the driveway?
Be prepared for a dirty job. The access to the connections is very limited as well. I did mine five years ago. You may need to replace the filler hose since the rubber gets rock hard and very difficult to remove or connect when that happens. There are websites specifically for fuel tank hoses. I found one and it was very helpful. I used a piece of hardwood as a drift pin to unlock the lock ring so as not to damage it. Just tapped it loose.
It will really be safer to handle the tank if you pump out most of the gas though.
