You will have to take the tank out to clean it as the filling tube is only about 1/2" in diameter and goes through two 90° bends before you reach the tank.

I'm hoping my problem is solved but I have my doubts.

Tank capacity is 7 liters (7.4 qt) so draining it would not be fun without the tank on the floor.

When you take out the tank remember how you did it as putting it back can be a real pain if the fender liner is not completely removed, completely removing the liner is a big pain as well.

Removing a full tank would be a real pain in the tail bone.
