Run tank as low as you can
Lower the tank enough to get the fuel assembly unbolted and out
Replace fuel components
Replace fuel assembly
Replace tank
Drive it like you stole it!
While you have the tank down/out you might as well harpoon it...

From what I've read on various PSD sites, it's a fairly common problem.
