[C320-list] Hot water tank removal

Jim,
I replaced my hot water tank and it’s not hard to get out or replace. Certainly not 8 hours worth. Defender sells a replacement that is “almost” the exact size as the original. The main difference was where the screw holes line up with existing holes but it was doable. The only thing that slowed me down was finding the source of what was restricting hot water flow to the hot side of the sink. The other thing to be prepared for is the need to replace the brass fittings on the original tank. I couldn’t get the original ones out so ended up replacing them. There are two hoses on the left side that go to the engine so the tank has to come out to replace those. Good luck.
