I am removing the fuel tank on my Son-in-law's HD5G in preparation for doing some brake work.

The manual simply states "Close the fuel shut-off cock at the bottom
of the fuel tank and disconnect the fuel lines
from the tank."

Since there is no shutoff valve on the return, will fuel come spewing out of the return line when I disconnect it?

Thanks Cal, that's what I was hoping for. The brake on the right side had lost some lining, sure was fun getting  the brake band out but we succeeded :-)
