[QUOTE="Flip57, post: 120631, member: 6939"] I had the same thing happen to my 863 a few years ago but it broke off right at the top of the tank so I had to rig a gallon jug to get the machine into my shop. I found that I had to pull hydraulic tank, the cooling fan and plenum. Then you can reach over the pump and do most of it by feel. You can put your head in to see or your hands to work but not both at the same time. Another post stated that he used steel tubing (brake line?) instead of the plastic tubing going into the tank itself. Not sure how he got it to fit to the elbow. I Just got through changing the fuel gauge last week and that was a similar tear down operation. When the gauge quits you get a low fuel alarm (annoying!) and cannot read the hour meter. You might think about changing that out at the same time just for general principal. [/QUOTE]
