I'll read about guys replacing their AOS... getting all hung up on removing the bellows... the rubber part at the very bottom of the old AOS. It can be a pain to get the clamp off. Me? I just cut mine in half for it was going to be replaced anyhow.

So... along those lines... couldn't those engine-side hoses just be cut close to the tank... remove the tank... toss the tank... replace tank including new hoses?

No? Incorect? Am I missing something?
I wondered about this approach. Must be a problem because I'm not finding much on it.

Thanks for all the tips. I'll post my progress.
