I replaced the tank at the time of the installation of the kit. I have
a feeling they screwed something up.

My mechanic upstate here is going to look at the tank either tonight
or later this week.

I really think it has got to be something simple. It has a new tank
that is not even a year old, the new tank seal kit and all new fuel
lines. So to me it sounds like a improperly installed component or
possibly a bad hose to or from the expansion tanks.

Thanks Ken.
