Subject:speaking of parts failing too soon,

Two years ago in April I had my mechanic install a new gas tank from Bus Depot, and a new reseal kit from Van Cafe, the one with the aluminum crossover.

This winter I had to do the reseal again, the tank was leaking at two of the grommets and from all the hoses associated directly with the tank.  Examination of the grommets revealed that all three were cracked around the edges, and the hoses had spit ends.  Some may recall my making inquiry of the list concerning leaking gasoline at fill up.  Well, that was the situation, all cured now, but of course, it was expensive and time consuming.
