Hi, I’m trying to change the expansion tank due to faulty sensor and bleed screw won’t stay in under pressure. I can get everything off it, but the bottom hose looks impossible to get to, anybody got a tip?

Thanks Pete, sorry I should have been a bir clearer, I can get everything off, but the bottom hose looks unreachable. Any tips? Also although I can remove headlight I can’t get the plug out the back of it, the clips broken.

Maybe you pull the tank up an inch or 2 to get to the hose.
I don’t remember it being too difficult

If you have the bottle hose clip off
use a long flat blade screw driver to carefully work round the joint to part it.
Don’t split the hose though.

I certainly removed the headlight when I did it.
