I would be interested to know how you take the tank out . Do you cut
the
top of the cockpit module out? And if so what is the recommendation for
putting the bit you cut out back on?
Will
PS I am putting in my tri gear main sockets ' without the top on. How
on
earth did anyone put them in with the top on??!

I I remember correctly a few years back there was a change in the tanks
from
the factory, basically flourinating them to avoid these problems. Are
these
problematic tanks older pre-flourinated ones? Or are the new tanks also
chemically inadequate? I'd hate to hear how much $$ a custom welded
Alum
would cost (let alone all the probs associated with weld quality
leaks).
Cheers,

A239 *still* a pile of parts.

While Baby Blue is in for repairs and installation of her new altitude
hold,
I had occasion to look over the tank area, thoroughly. Sure enough, I
found
evidence of contact between the center push rod and the tank, right
where
you gents are point to. No real damage to the tank, but it was
definitely
touching. I applied a bit of Velcro loop to the tank area to guard
against
against further wear. I plan to either reposition the push rod, or
extend
the brace to push the tank back into it's intended shape. I'll let
everyone
know what I come up with and supply a pic or two...
BTW, my new exhaust down pipe, just arrived. I'll install it tomorrow.
Many thanks to John and Rodger for the prompt shipping. I ordered it
one
week ago, yesterday...
Jeff,
Baby Blue

Following Arnold's picture I thought I would take one of my tank and the
bulge therein. Very similar but without a leak so far (!!??) as I know.
