What did you all do after the DEF delete, did you drain the DEF tank? I'm considering draining it because I read it crystallizes if it sits too long.

Best thing to do is drain, a flush of clean water to clean out, let air dry and forget it.

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States, where men 'were' free." ~ Ronald Regan
Thank you!

Let me know how you do it.... I tried to get mine to break loose as it looks like a twist lock on the bottom where the pump is, no dice, probably gonna put it on the lift this weekend and try again, the fill tube is about 6' before it hits the tank and there's a fitting that blocked me from inserting a piece of hose through it... thought about trying to energize the pump and have it empty itself but haven't got that far yet

You just need to pop the twist lock off with a hammer and a flat blade screw driver. Removal is counter-clockwise.

Never ending project. Always adding something...
I'll try it again this weekend, That's the way it looked to me but I couldn't get it to budge, I was starting to cut into the metal tabs...

I need to do this also, then flush the line out. Any tricks for that operation? Maybe jam a garden hose nozzle in there and give it a blast?

Is the twist lock you mentioned on the bottom of the tank around pump assembly? I just popped off the fill tube on the tank, pumped it out and flushed it, but I'd like to clean up the pump like you guys did. Thanks, Brian

Do you place the screw driver on the ring with silver tabs and try and spin that or the outer black ring, to unlock?
