    Doug, did this service bulletin go out? Jerry Goldberg N44456 Covey Trails (X09) -----Original Message----- From: owner-allegro-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-allegro-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Doug Hempstead Sent: Monday, September 11, 2017 9:39 AM Subject: RE: Allegro-List: Re: Fuel tank --> <doug@allegrolsa.com> 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.

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 -------- N456TS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=472768#472768
