I GOT IT OFF!!!!! I saw zalled as much of th ebolt off ad i could, then with a cro bar, I pushed in on the tank, which gave me just enough room to pull it out. I havent taken the bolt, or the brass thing out of the tank yet. Ill let you knwo how that goes as soon as I do it. (which probably wont be until friday or saturday) I guess I was the guine pig for this one! and we have a partial success so far!
