David,
Yes, I had a hard time removing the guards. They where rusted in different
places. I was able to get all the bolts out except the last one. Good thing
for me, the guard was rusted near the bolt allowing me to remove it. I don't
think it was worth it, I should have just loosen a hose to let it drain out.
The "tee" sounds like the way to go. Let me know about any info on it. Thanks
DAN

Yes, there are those that have used a tee.  I'll forward their messages
separately.
