    Default hq one tonner

    hi i brought this old hq one tonner of ebay, its safe to say its kinda ****ed.

    its got gas and petrol. but the petrol isnt conected.? like the tank and everythigns there but its just not conected
    and the tray is on there, there is wires everywhere.

    i want to take of the tray to get to the gas tank to take it off.
    but i cant get to the front right bolt cos the petrol tank is in the way and the back u bolts are kinda rusted on.
    but i dont want to cut them with the angle grinder cos of the age of the gas tank.

    if anyone knows anything about one tonners or anything can they tell me how to get the tray off

    and anyone that knows anything about gas can they tell me how to remove the gas system and re connect the petrol system

    thanks guys

    The back U bolts will need to be removed or cut there is no way around that. if it was me i would just cut them because there VERY easy to replace. As for the front there is some what of a nack to them. If its just the R/H one because of the take then you would be best to use 2 1 foot long socket extensions connected onto each other then the socket on the end of that. Then its just a case of getting someone to hold the bolt at the top with a wringie, shifter etc then undo the nut with the ratchet.

    i ended up un bolting it. took forever on the back ones and there was this whining noise the whole time.
    the front ones were pretty easy though

    thanks mate
