 Time to test the tank for leaks
I put duct tape over the gas cap as instructed. Apparently the gas cap is not totally air tight.
|
 Installed the valve stem into the tank fuel drain hole
I put some vinyl tape on the valve stem to make sure there were no air leaks.
|
 Cool! No Leaks!
After I pumped up the tank and got the balloon to a decent size I checked the hole tank over for leaks with some windex in a spray bottle, looking for any sign of bubbles. I left the balloon on for a few hours to make sure that there wasn't a really slow leak anywhere. Well, the balloon never went down!
