I haven't thought much about this but a thought
occurred to me. Could you add a strip of aluminum the
thickness of the cover to the side vertical and then
attach a strip of piano hinge in the area of the seat?
You would then be able to remove the available
screws, pull the piano hinge wire, remove the fuel
lever and it could be removed.

| Subject: | QB Wing Fuel Tank Removal |
I'm starting work on my QB wings and trying to think through whether I
should remove the tanks to inspect, install the senders, test for leaks,
ease access for other parts, etc. Any comments?
I started removing one and immediately ran into some problems with the a
few screws not coming out easily. That alone may be a good reason to
remove, inspect, and re-install.
Thanks for comments.

I had problems with a few of the screws not wanting to come out, too.
Twisted the head off of one of them. The plans said to remove the
tanks, so I did. Have installed the senders, repaired a dent that I
put in one leading edge, leak checked, and they are now ready to go
back on. However, it is a little easier to finish the stall warning
system, wiring, pitot system, etc. with the tanks off. I am also
installing SafeAir1 extended range tanks, so the main tanks have to
be off for that reason.
