Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see

I took mine off my Farmall 240 2 years ago to seal the tank. Had a pinhole. Take the side panels off the hood. Take the radiator cap, gas cap, muffler, and air breather off. Take the hood off. Take the sheet metal off above the tank. It is separate from the hood, but the hood overlaps the bolts for this piece. There will be a small piece of metal under the touch control handles held on by two sheet metal screws that needs to come off. Now before you move anything on the gas tank cover, take all the screws off the instrument cluster along with the white corner pieces and sides. Need to remove the panel by the gear shift too. You should be able to take the gas tank cover off at this point with some maneuvering of the instrument cluster. There are four bolts holding the tank down. The choke cable runs thru some clamps on the tank bolts, so don't loose them. It sounds worse than it really is. I would replace anything like the choke cable at this point if you need one because you don't want to do this again for stuff like that. Good Luck,

-Horsepoor

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership, ... [Read Article]
