Don, I'd be glad to give you a ride home, but you need to give a little more advanced notice. You are too far away for this short of notice. Hope you don't have to drop the fuel tank, but if you do let me know how it goes as I will be replacing our transmission soon and might as well look at the tank while I am in the area.
