Need detailed instructions how to remove fuel tank from my LT-150.
Please advise.
Please advise.
Easy to do , hard to explain.
When the mower was made the tank went on the frame & got hooked up then the rear guard & foot board plastic panel went on then the seat went on then the dash tower went on then the steering shaft went through the dash
You can no longer get a diagram that shows you the tank mountings because John Deere got a computer wanker who has never pulled a toy car apart let alone a mower to redesign their electronic parts listings.
So naturally it is total trash and 100% useless to anyone other than a computer nerd who lobedo is lagging so he can play with it and get sexually stimulated.
I am yet to find a dealer who can use it and the ones I deal with bitch endlessly that it now take 10 minutes to find a part number and makes them look stupid to their customers on the other side of the counters and these are the people who actually know what they are looking for.
So the tank is held in with some bolts that go through tabs moulded into the tank itself plus one or more steel bracket.
Usually I would go to the IPL and check but the IDIOT MORON APOPLECTIC ACCOUNTANT pretending to be a manager who authorised the new parts lists has made it impossible to find the tank mounts so I can not check for you.
I think there are 2 but can not be sure.
You will need to pull the left wheel off for sure and perhaps the right as well to get to the brackets & fittings
After that raise the rear guard a little and to do that I think you have to remove the 2 bolts that hold the seat in place
They go through the middle of the springs
Then disconnect the fuel line, better than average chance that it will break the elbow that goes through the tank
Then undo the bolts that hold the tank in and the bracket (s)
Remove the fuel cap as it wont go through the hole in the guard
If the guard is high enough to clear the filler cap the tank will pull out to the rear
BE very careful lifting the guard as it is plastic and will be quite brittle by now
