I've been asked to fab another fuel tank, I was told i can I add the race foam before welding, surely it will melt onto the weld inside of tank making a mess, has anyone done it
All the fuel cells I've seen have a large enough opening to be able to add foam blocks after fabrication.... Wouldn't have thought sealed-for-life would be a good idea as the foam does deteriorate over time.
When you make your baffles you have to be able to pocket foam in and obviously be able to remove it for either future repairs or replacing the foam as @Munkul said it does deteriorate over time
This should do he's qualifying on Saturday his foam arrives Friday he will fit the foam himself, I've made it so that there's a fuel bowl, made this one from 3mm should be good for 18.5-19 litres
Lovely looking tanks, I might make myself a little one for the oil system return line I'm rigging up for a turbo, was going to use the basin from a stainless deep fat fryer but really can't be bothered to tig 1mm stainless again especially when it needs a deaerator plate inside it..
Been asked to make another now, some of it is new to me, does anyone know where to get the rally car quick fill points if that's they're called tried Google but can't find them, also need a vdo fuel level sender
