Hi Group
I was getting my Aux. Fuel Tank ready for storage and hatched an idea for an EZ Main Fuel Tank leak.
I have a 914 XS Mono. I put a 914 pump on tank to transfer fuel.:

Here's my knee jerk idea to possibly deal with a Leaking Main Fuel Tank?:
In my case, install a Long Range style tank to the Port side of my Aeroplane, it could hold a bit more than the Starboard Factory tank? Install a 914 pump on that tank as well and just plumb into existing system. Then cut access holes in the seat back to allow storage inside the leaking tank.

True some details to work out, but nothing that I see at first think to be insurmountable. If running a bit tail heavy, just install the Depleted Uranium spinner!

I would have an added incentive to do such a thing, I glassed in Balsa per Nev under door sill to strengthen and have them filled with wires. In addition on the top of the cockpit module,I also needed to run plus and minus to the other side of plane. Starboard is + and port is -, and ran to other side of plane with a thin wide copper Sheet glassed to the top of the Cockpit Module that would need to be dealt with.

OK, thoughts?
