Re: I hate the nose tank .

If you are using JB weld, you are an accident waiting to happen. Pull the tank and get it soldered properly. I am making a replacement fuel valve under an STC just because my old one used to weep. Mogas smelled so bad that I would get headaches when flying it. I now have a vavle that doesnt seep and I had all of the tanks repaired the last time I had my airplane tore down. I also fuel lubed the shit out of every set of threads for every line in the airplane. The tank design is fine as long as it is maintained and repaired properly. These are just my 2 cents. Tim

Agreed JB is not good. But afer so many headaches and failures I gave up .
I didn't fly this year for that reason and plan to pull the tank this winter .
