New Fuel Tank Needed for AS 170
« on: June 16, 2012, 06:57:53 PM »
When the person testing my new fuel tank for my 170 the air valve broke and split the tank. The tank had held 3 lbs for 3 hours as required. When he was disconnecting the air line the valve broke and overfilled the tank before he could pull the hose off. He will pay for a new tank.

The main problem is that I was ready to install the tank. Is there a new one out there already built..???

I'm not sure what your getting at...I'm guessing your had a new tank ready to install because the installed tank was bad? I'm also guessing your wanting to know where you can get another tank?
