      Hi Doug.  
      I have been looking into the tank liner made by Bill Hirsch.  It appears that their
      liner is white in color.  The inside of my tank is red.  This leaves me unsure
      of what is/isn't in that fuel tank.  Did my tank not get coated when it
      was built?  
      
      Thanks,
      Bradley

Re: Fuel tank
      
      
      Bradley,
      Thank you for your note.  ALL Allegro fuel tanks are coated, including
      N456TS.  I will go back to the records to check exactly which coating was
      used.  I can say that ALL our fuel tank coatings were resistant to ethanol
      AND were fully capable of handling up to 10% ethanol fuel.  
      
      We are in process of sending out a service bulletin for non-ethanol fuels.
      We have found that non-ethanol fuels are not regulated as to additives.  In
      some cases MEK is used as an additive.  MEK, over time, CAN break down the
      coating and attached the composites.  The service bulletin will require
      either NOT using non-ethanol fuels, or KNOWING there is no MEK used in the
      additives.
      
      Hope this helps.
      Thanks,
      Doug
