Has anyone removed their fuel tank from a Ford based MGTD (CMC) I had some carb issues and may need to remove and clean the tank. Looks like it will come out if I remove the rear shroud but it looks very tight. It is the original rectangular aluminum tank. Thanks
In the process of re-engineering the fuel fill on mine. Removal is simple. Remove the spare tire. Remove the Hat. Work through the opening to remove the filler neck and license plate wiring. Remove the cover. Hold down bolts for the tank are easily accessible. Just lift it out.

I don’t know how far you’ve made it. I’m into reassembly. I’ve taken photos on my way out you might find helpful
on your way in.
Once you remove the hat on the rear cover you’ll be able to access the filler hose and wiring. The factory fill is a bottleneck that makes refilling a PITA. I’m finally addressing that.
I am starting a new post on this project.
