Fuel Tank-Squarebody?

[Dead Parrot]

Good bet on the old tar strips being bad. That is where my tank rusted out. Guessing the mostly tar-less strips started holding water at the rust out spot. The hole did rust from the outside. The rest of the tank was still in good condition.

I used some strips of neoprene door mat as I was out of roofing felt and didn't want to buy a new roll just for cutting a few inches of tank stripping.
