Hi Matt,
The flap that you bent down to form the back wall. Can that be forward of t
he new insert? It would look better and be easier to keep clean of gunk (th
at's a technical term).

Jim
Putting MEK in the tank has only made your problem worse. You might have turned
a single leak into several by adding MEK to the tank. You had better contact
Richard and let him walk you through how to repair that leak.

Sorry to hear about your situation. I had a similar situation (not aviation related)
about 6 years ago. Went through all your going through, then went to court
and won a $22,000 judgment. Unfortunately, a judgment against them means little
to people like that. In all over 6 years I've received $3000 and been back
to court 5 times. In my opinion, exposing him as you're doing and impacting
his business is the best and probably the only way to really get his attention.
