Cub Hood removal

Remove the radiator cap. Turn the fuel off at the sediment bowl, and disconnect the fuel line. Remove the grille. Remove the two screws in the top of the triangular pieces just behind the grille. Disconnect the wires from the headlights, and feed them back through the grommets in the hood. Remove the row of screws that attach the hood/tank unit to the bracket containing the ammeter, light switch, and the ignition switch. Check for clips underneath the hood that retain the wire harness, and remove the harness from the clips.

Unless I've forgotten something, you should be ready to remove the hood/tank assembly. It helps to have an assistant, because it can get a little awkward, moreso depending on the amount of fuel in the tank.
