leaking fuel

[rv10soon]

I have had the right wing tank off once and spent a lot of time fixing the leaks. Now both tanks are leaking and I'm taking them both off. Is there a good "professional" general aviation fuel leak repair company in or near Houston?

Not sure where you are located, but there is a place in minnesota that fixes tanks.

I would check with Jay at RV Central.

Were they QB tanks? Sorry for your troubles.

LEAKING FUEL

No these were slow build by me. Had "proseal on the belly" for a couple of weeks for each wing. The tanks have about 300 rivets each and it only takes one mistake to make them leak. I stored them for a couple of years in a cradle but supported them from the small leading edge spar, instead of the main spar. This put a stress and slight bend in this short little spar and that is most of my problem.

Isn't there something called "slosh compound" you can use?

Just kidding.........
