[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 19245, member: 2304"] Hi, I have ordered a new tank from VOC Spares Co., it should be available in a couple of months or so. The old tank, while in perfect external condition has a sealer which is breaking down due to the current ethanol content in fuel. I can't see that I can get the sealer out without damaging the existing paintwork plus I have no interest in resealing the tank. I decided the best long term approach is a new tank. I have recently moved to Dundee - can someone recommend a good reliable paint shop, in the general area, who can be trusted to do the paintwork including lining and transfers. Secondly, I'm sure others have had a similar problem with a sealed tank - has anyone had other issues with the fuel changes? Thanks for the help, Mike [/QUOTE]
