Fuel Expansion Tank Removal 84.5

[dswalterwi at gmail.com (Don Walter)]

It can be removed without taking out the tank but I'm not sure how.  Maybe
these pictures of the unit will help.  There should be another nipple off
the end opposite of the one with two but it broke off.  It was cracked and
was causing a leak.
