Details

What's wrong: Fuel tank flanges were not bent as required to allow the specified clearance for the fuel tank mounting straps and fuel lines at the tank.

Why it matters: The unbent flanges to the fuel tank will damage themounting straps and/or fuel lines. The damaged mounting straps may break causingthe tank to drop and the damaged fuel line will leak fuel. In either case a firecould result if the spilled fuel is exposed to an ignition source.

The fix: Repair the flange by bending to the correct angle; replace damaged fuel lines and mounting straps.
