Happiness short-lived, looking for suggestions
#1
So as I finally got the last piece for Joe to pour the fuel and crank it up, the excitement lasted fir about 30 seconds when the fuel start pouring out from the bottom of the tank, i took me a while to disconnect that nasty fuel pump jack, but that time a full gallon poured out. When I finally managed to turn the tank around to have a look at what the heck was happening, I found that the paint guys overtightened the fuel pump screws and one of the bolts cracked. They just left it there still attached so as soon as I twisted it off the bolt stayed in my hand.
Now these bolts are welded to the ring that holds them, does anyone have any suggestion on how to fix this, because at this point I'm a bit clueless.
I feel like I'm gonna need a new tank, do you all have the same feeling?[Image: baaab0c94c4d7eced7df6cc894a7e0cf.jpg]
