I got 3/4 or so of the top of the tank exposed (deck cut out). There is a few inches the tank can slide back, and a few inches between the deck and the tank. I am going to cut out all the foam I can get to, and try to sneak the tank out without removing the console, and cutting more deck. So far all of the foam is dry, except a little on the top, which was damp but not soaked..
Will take more pics tomorrow.

If you go with the plactic tank they recommend not foaming it in. These tanks need to flex a bit. But I foamed just the corners where it was rigid.

The foam came out quickly using a shovel, tried sliding the tank back, and up no dice. Looks like the console is gonna have to come out, which means I need to clean my garage first.  |
