Is it a fairly easy job? I have worked on cars my whole life and it looks pretty easy to do. Anybody else try it?

 

yeah its fairly easy, 2 of the allens are a pain to get too. i have a special bent ball head allen for that job. harley makes a ratcheting ball head allen for this job also but it sucks cuz it requires almost too many degrees for it to ratchet in that small of a space. check to be sure you have the right tools before you tear into it.

 

Ok cool, anything I need to do with the gaskets before installing them, or just put them in dry?

 

what's the reason for replacement anyway? you're sure they're leaking? tested them with some carb/choke cleaner? putting them on dry is fine.

 

Yep did the propane test, it been missing randomly for about a week.

 

Take the horn off and use a long handled allen wrench to remove the 2 bolts

 

What a pain in the ***, bolts came out easy rear bolt went back in easy front bolts are a bitch to get started.

 

yeah they're a bitch, glad you got it sorted, hopefully it fixes your problem.

Did the tank need to be removed or just lifted up
