Further to this,
My reservoir has sprung a leak this last fall.  I put a new one near by, but
I would really like to repair the old one.  I just cant seem to get it out
of the fender.

Does anyone know an efficient way to get the thing out of their?  If I can
get it out I can repair it, maybe.

It is just that having a reservoir hanging on the side of the tank doesnt
look right.

Thanks
