You might have the same problem. Good luck. Bruno - B4 Depends what's in there. Step one: remove tank, inspect. My 20B has a welded aluminum tank that required major work two years ago to restore to service. New electric valve, some cutting & welding. Cleaning, blasting, corrosion proofing and sealing with fuel tank sealer. Works great since, no leaks. -Evan Ludeman / T8 |
