I replaced the tank, all seals/hoses and checked/resealed valves on expansion tanks just this year. It's likely I just didn't tighten those two zap straps enough. Just don't want to drop the tank *again*, but your warnings are taken under advisment :) Neil. -- Neil Nicholson '81 VanaJetta 2.0 "Jaco" http://tubaneil.googlepages.com/ http://groups.google.com/group/vanagons-with-vw-inline-4-cylinder-gas-engines
