The gas line feed comes out of the bottom of the tank & makes an immediate
90 degree elbow toward the side of the frame. You need to go under the
truck & disconnect this. Have a pail ready to catch the gas. There should
be a valve there also, so you can remove the hose AFTER the valve & control
the amount & rate of flow out of the tank (if you have a lot of gas in the
tank now & only small pails).
