Default Split Fuel Tank

I recently installed a Cline System on my Four Star 60. I was debating at the time pulling out the tank that came with it and installing a better one. On my fourth flight today the engine died and I dead-sticked on the far side of the dry-lake. When I picked up the plane I noticed fuel dripping out. The factory supplied tank had split. This post is a warning to anyone going to a Cline System and using a cheap tank.
