I worked inside Air Force Jets fuel tanks for 25 years and had numerous fuel burns over them years from fuel soaking through my coveralls. So I understand how diesel is since I was in JP-4, JP-5, and JP-8.

Great job. I'm 74 and we we're auto workers and grain farmers in central Michigan. And if I couldn't get a job at Buick, Michigan State had a program to get certified as farm machinery mechanic. Far less complicated than today; but I still eat this stuff up. I never did farm because of Vietnam' but went into the Coast Guard and wound up in Maine and spent my last 38 years as a papermaker. Next best thing to farming. Always a challenge......loved it. I like the way you explain things and have an employer who lets you do it when you can. Truthfully, you're better off just paying the labor cost and letting you guys handle it. I was an engineman in the service and sometimes you're better off letting guys like you handle it. And before I leave, I'd like to give a thumbs up to Gosh. Great personality and looks like someone who's fun to work with. Keep up the good work.

Twelve hours by the book but the three of you did it in five. Great going!!!!!!!!!!! Teamwork was the key here and knowledge of what had to be done to get the job done. My compliments to all three of you. Nice work. Lots to take apart to get at the tank. Never saw a tank on its own and was a lot bigger than what I thought. Wow. Thanks ZK for showing us this repair job. You all did great. Thanks for everything ZK. You all take care and be safe. Thanks. The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve. 😊😊👋👍👍👍

My father in law ran a BMW dealership here in the UK. All the workshop lads were on a bonus system to beat the allocated hours for warranty work. It certainly upped the throughput of the workshop and the lads came up with some very innovative ways to access difficult parts. Some even created their own tooling, just like your brace for the tank. Regards from Scotland.

Pretty sure the fuel tank is a pip in a certain serial number range and another way of doing it if you have a crane is you can hang the reservoir and the def tank from a couple of straps and get the tank out with a fork lift, just saves removing the def tank

Nice to see a metal fuel tank compared to plastic! How many fuel tanks have you done on a X9? Deere gives you 12 hrs to R&R but for the most part you had 3 Guys working on it so 3 men times 5 hours you did it in 15 hours. Or does Deere book time allow for 2-3 helpers? Flat rates that I have seen is based on one guy working on it. None the less good video! Thanks!

@@BRPFan A leaking tank is otay for you... But a plastic tank is a liability in a fire... Insurance estimates 80% of all reported combine fires result in a total loss. A good portion of the remaining 20% should be written off as well but by the time the additional claims are submitted vs the labor spent they power through with more money. We will just ignore the prolific use of poly tanks used in every industry without issue. Especially on road tanks subjected to destructive testing....
