Got it bac k together & is now running fine again. 26yrs of operation.....what can ya say if it needs a few replacement parts.

TANK IS SLIGHTLY MORE DIFFICULT TO INSTALL THAN TO REMOVE. TAKE CARE NOT TO PUNCTURE THE TANK.
1. Disconnected fuel lines from carb using needle nose pokers.
2. Removed 4 T25 bolts that hold metal tank guard on and removed guard.
3. Using long flat blade screwdriver, I pried the back side of the tank out of frame notc hes and removed tank from trimmer.
4. Make sure 4 rubber vibration mounts stay on trimmer.
5. Used clamp to slightly pinch sides of tank. Inserted tank into rear frame notches and using long flat blade screwdriver pried tank notches back into front of frame. Ensure that the rubber vibration mounts are seated flush, oriented the the right way and not pinched. If they are pinched use a flat screwdriver to move and press rubber mount to seat correctly.
6. Reconnect all fuel lines, fill tank and check for leaks. Test run trimmer making sure rubber vibration mounts are seated and not causing excess tank vibration. You should feel excess vibration if they arenGÇÖt seated correctly.
7 Reinstall metal tank guard and any other items previously removed.
