We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the

saying something like:

If your cylinder is also indirectly heated from a CH boiler then the

/may/ obstruct a longer immersion heater.

They're designed not too - although you wouldn't believe that from the
struggle you sometimes have to get the bloody thing in past the coil.

It sounds like you have done one before, so how did you get the old one
out?
I tried to get my mates out, but it wouldnt budge.

I replaced my immersion heater once, using a lever with a piece of chain
attached to it.

Some 10-15 years later I removed the tank. It was impossible to get the
element out of the tank without damaging the tank.
