Fellow Commander Folks,



Here in cold country there is a problem with my 680F(p).  On the Ox tanks only, when the temperature gets below freezing the water in the tanks (only a very few drops) goes to the fuel drains and freezes around the rubber "O" rings.  When a fuel sample is taken by pushing up on the drain mechanism the ice then plugs up the seat or tears the "O" ring and then all of the gas in the tank runs out on the ground.  This has only happened twice, however, it is a real problem when it does happen.  A mechanical solution is in order, since it is not always practical to heat the drains out on the tarmac.  All suggestions will be appreciated.
