Subject:Re: Fix tank expansion system without a complete rework?

The right side grommet on top of the expansion tank was not sealing at all,
judging from the dirt packed under it, and some muddy stains inside that
tank.  I've had gas smell over there forever when I've just filled
up...even drips on the pavement...
   Wonder why they did that?  Tried some silicone...not pleased so I
ordered some new grommets.   The way that is built, it must take in a lot
of water .... easily enough to cause my no run situation ... fingers
crossed...thanks all

Can one access the expansion tanks for the main fuel tank without removing
the whole thing?  If there's a halfway measure I  could do to perhaps slow
down water getting into the gas during Deluge Driving.... it'd be
preferable to doing a total tank replacement in the sand on blm land
