[QUOTE="vincenttwin, post: 29623, member: 185"] Eric When my brother in law used to run Conways , I saw him do the manhole insert a few times , most of the UFM'S had been cleaned before , and they still had lots of build up of sticky oil and bits of metal in the rear corners when you looked in the hole. I had it done on my B UFM when I rebuild it.The tank had had solvent in it for a few days and ball bearing to rattle around it still had bits of metal and trash embedded in hard burnt oil in the corners only seen after cutting the hole , it seems to settle towards the rear of the tank.. so I think I would go ahead and do it.heres the link I think if you have an good welder you could put it in your self, its hidden under the fuel tank.
