I was told by a mechanic I know at my dealer that the charge was 5.5 hours, but had been reduced to something like 4 hours. In reality a mechanic who has done it before can do it in about 40 minutes. The mechanic I know has replaced many tanks and he showed me how to do it. But it took me 3 days playing around with 1 hose clamp.
