Wrapping up my new fuel lines under the shelf. No matter how many times I have drained/siphoned there has been gas on my face again and again. While it is this "dry" I am thinking I should pull the fuel tank out and check out how it's looking down there as realistically it will never be this "dry" again.
Any reason not to have a peek? Anything I should inspect specifically? |

Why not? I guess so you don't risk finding something that needs serious attention.
Among other things, when you pull the tank check for surface rust on the outside, especially where it sits on the felt pads. |
