My main fuel tank began staining and seeping along the previously welded repair where the vertical rear plate meets the curved section just in front of my left knee. I need to make a temporary repair until after the last contest so I drained the tank, patched it and before I let it dry over night I thought I would take a look in the bottom of the tank with my bore-scope. The flop tube O-ring was laying on the bottom of the tank. I used the bore-scope in one hand and the claw pickup tool in the other to fish it out of the 2" opening. Not fun... but I got it out of there. I purchasing a new tank and flop tube so now the question is....what to do about the new o-ring during the install? leave it on and install it?
