I had nothing to do with this!

These are the things you get when buying sight unseen. I'm going to try a little air and a BFH and see if I can get it to "pop" out.

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9692 Location: So. Cal That stinks. The air is a good idea. Hard to get it to seal, but it doesn't take much psi to move things around. Doing it with a helper and using a hammer at the same time should be successful. Just don't over-apply the air as it can pop it out beyond where it should be. 58coupe Posted 2021-02-21 12:08 PM (#609136 - in reply to #609122) Subject: Re: I had nothing to do with this! Expert Posts: 1740 Location: Alaska I think it would be best to try a hard rubber hammer first with the air.

The air started to work then a crease opened up and that was that. I bit the bullet and just ordered a new tank and sending unit. I'll let you know how it works out.

Cal You're lucky, the Lancer wagon tank isn't available new as far as I know.
