I noticed one day when filling the gas that fuel was running down the side of the tank after I got home. I reached up around the protection plate to the edge of the tank where there is about a one inch seam. The seam felt a little rough and when I moved it up and down (it shouldn’t do that!!!) A small piece crumbled off in my hand. Uh oh! I had my shop install a new one because I dont mess with gasoline. Fortunately it was the seal to the pump that leaked and the rust was only on the outside. No gas was harmed in this adventure.
