I have parked the crawer on a small concrete slab just big enough for the tractor and motor cycle lift can I do the job with the lift? The service manual said to remove the fuel tank is that necessary?

I found clean oil dripping from a weep hoe under the tractor at rear of the engine. Would that be oil from the revers...
