I am working on my QB Wings, specifically testing the tanks. I have used the balloon method and the manometer method. So far I have found no rivet leaks. There was a slight air bubble at the edge of the tumbler on the locking gas cap (no worries). The manometer and balloon tests will hold for a three hours or more. (I would like better). I did find a leak coming from behind where the T905 support angle attaches to the front of the inboard rib.
I need advice! Should I try to proseal, after scuffing and cleaning all around the angle support? I definitely hate to completely dissassemble the tank if I do not have to.
See picture below.
