Before Pics of Fuel Tank Removed exposing Stainless Steel Stringer1
have had the rear hatch cover, live well, seat assembly, foot rest, T-Top, entire center console and the 85 gallon fuel tank removed for inspection looking for a possible fuel leak.
I had the fuel tank pressure tested and "Thank God" it passed with no leaks.
Once the tank was removed I could clearly see how the Stainless Steel Stringer runs the length of the fuel tank.
There has been a lot of threads/posts about the Stainless Steel Stringer in the bilge area and cleaning and re-applying new RULE there but now that I have seen it fully exposed I can clearly see where water can enter the inner hull all the way to the front of the tank.
Since everything is out I plan to have all of the old RULE removed and new RULE applied.
