Can anyone offer specific tips on removing the 130 gal tank from my Dynasty? This is a 1998, 38' with a 130 gal tank that is accessible from either side. It has a leak along the vertical weld on one end and the area is too "tight" to get a tig weld accomplished.

I'm thinking a couple of roller-equipped, adjustable height stands and a hand pump of some sort to empty the tank as much as possible.

OK, thanks. I got it. Not as difficult as I feared. Took about 30-min.

NOO it done all the time especially in the oil field, I have seen welders use the exhaust from their welding machine or fill with water or degas it, its lots of ways to weld it safely.
