Brief Description: LEFT fuel tank sealing (1 of 2)
Did two major things today:
1. Installed the reinforcing ring and platenuts in the rear fuel tank baffle, for the fuel sender. This is the LEFT tank, which has a flop tube, so the sender is in an alternate location.
2. Installed the stiffener angles with fuel sealant, in teh LEFT fuel tank skin.
Before installing the stiffeners I had to clean all the parts, and that took a while. Degreaser, then acetone.
