Thought I'd give this a bump as its coolant season. I did this over the weekend and had my tank out in an hour or so back in was about two hours finding the hose that leaked because I used too big a clamp added another hour.
Note I didn't have a dremel but I found a pair of side cutters and a drill bit worked great. Also a small 1/4" drive ratchet really made the reinstall easier.
