Wrapping up my new fuel lines under the shelf. No matter how many times I have drained/siphoned there has been gas on my face again and again. While it is this "dry" I am thinking I should pull the fuel tank out and check out how it's looking down there as realistically it will never be this "dry" again.
Any reason not to have a peek? Anything I should inspect specifically? |

Also check the sides of the tank where the carpet pads touch it. The pads get saturated with water, and eventually the tank will rust enough that pinholes start letting gasoline out of the tank into the pads.
This one drove me nuts trying to figure it out. |
