Have you pulled your gas tank on EM

How long do you think it will take a pro while having on a lift, new bolts, new filler hoses.....

a pro can do it in 1 hr if nothing is rusted. 2 hr if everything goes wrong.

Probably 20 minutes, but you can't expect to pay a pro by their time. A gas tank job on any car is probably a minimum of 1.5hrs labor.

Wait.... did you mean just pull, or pull swap parts and replace? For the whole r&r I would refer to the other posts 1-2 hours.

Not exactly sure what model you have but be careful if it has the vent/return line attach as well. It will be above the larger filler line. Double check before trying to yank Gas tank out.

Also is your EM equipped with a front sway bar? That will add some time to the R & R.
