Removing oil tank and air cleaner form a '74 360DT - any Tricks in Removal? was created by warmblood58

Started to pull air cleaner box and oil injection tank but . . . . no go, all 10mm's removed as is air intake snorkle off airbox. Any tricks? Anything else I need to pull to make this work? Help! Thanks! Pardon typo in Subject, typing too fast

hmm...I remember it being a tight fit and worrying about scratching nice green paint but didn't have an issue removing.  I do think that I had the tool tray, silencer and exhaust pipe off...maybe because I couldn't get it out?

Some wiring harness shifted might work - would love to not remove exhaust at this time

Did you take the cap off the oil tank?

same frame setup as a DT400. You will need to remove the exhaust if I recall. It's sort of a puzzle how it goes together, and there is a definite order of things.
IF it isn't one thing, it's another.
