I searched the forums for an answer to my question, but I couldn?t find what I was looking for. So, if I?m re-asking, please forgive me.
I have completed both wings on my RV-14 (minus the fiberglass work). The fuel tanks have been sealed (with proseal), leak checked (with 100LL), and installed on the wings. I am currently storing both wings in the cradle I made until they get installed on the fuselage.....I?m guessing around nine months to a year.
So, here?s the question: is there anything I should do (or be worried about) in regards to the lengthy storage of ?empty? fuel tanks? Will the proseal degrade, crack, etc without fuel in the tanks? Corrosion issues (live near the beach)?
Thanks for your advice.
