September 22, 201411 yr It seems to have changed shape a bit. Is this a common thing? Is there some way to make it back to normal shape or should I look for another one?
September 22, 201411 yr Tanks sometimes change shape when they have a close encounter with a rock or the ground. As long as it is not leaking and all the attachment points are still intact, I would not worry about it unless the new shape bothers you esthectically.
September 22, 201411 yr Common if you've used petrol containing ethanol, generally they get longer & hard to fit between the frame rails. I'm pretty sure copemech ran straight avgas for a while & his returned to size
September 24, 201411 yr Story of irony. My Serrow has been sitting through the hot summer months so I drained the car gas and replaced it before it spoiled. Put a gallon and some of avgas in for storage because it keeps better. Seals in petcock shrunk after the car gas exposure and when I came back a week later there was fuel staining on the petcock and tank bone dry. Got it started and went to the local station for car gas. Has not leaked a drop! Feck me!
