    Say-
    I want to do the airbox snorkle removal on my Viffer, but after removing the bolt under the back of the fuel tank, it still won't budge. I know I have to remove a line or two, but is there another mounting point to it? I hate to just apply MORE pressure to pry it loose...I once saw somebody posted a shop manual on line, but I can't find the link anymore (copyright problems?).
    TIA

    OK, I thought I'd answer myself on this one in case anyone else has a problem. There is some type of bushing that I spied through a flashlight and magnifying glass in the tank mount. By selecting a small flat-sided screwdriver I was able to push it back in and the tank lifted right off.
