Default RE: Flair Puppeteer Trust Angles

Yes, the tank fit was very tight. I think I removed the back end of the box so that the tank protrudes into the radio compartment area. This gave a little more clearance for fuel lines etc. Now I'm not certian if this is the way the Pup tank is assembled, but the tanks with the machine screw and nut assembly for holding the stopper in place sometimes leak because the nut/screw vibrate loose. I believe I replaced my stopper assy with one that used a long sheet metal screw like the Sullivan tanks use..

If you remove the back end of the box it also allows you to push the tank out from the rear should it ever need to come out..I had to remove it when i changed over to diesel because of the need to change the fuel lines and clunk line to diesel-proof material. The Pup looks great. Makes me want to build another one of the Flair Scouts!!
