I just installed my new tank last night... I thought I would be able to extend the lines to make it easier for the reinstall... well, I did that, but pushing everything back proved to be an even bigger pain. And I was worried that the extra line would buckle and possible choke off a line. So I took all of the extensions off. I ended up reaching through the back with my right arm and grabbing a hose (in service mode) and holding the tank with my left hand... I was able to locate (blindly) the attachments. I did one at a time starting with the larger one that attaches directly to the white tank since that was the hardest to reach from the trunk side when tightening the new hose clamps.
Anyway, tanks IN, my right arm is very bruised from having to jam it in the engine bay to push the hoses into the back of the tank.
I can say though... that I was successful!!! Tonight I put the coolant back and the oil (did a change while I was at it). A serp belt and I'm back on the ROAD!
Let me know if you have any questions or issues and I'll be glad to chime in since I just did this less than 12 hours ago!
