Makes me think …Have anyone experience corrosion in the fuel tank on a RV …. Assuming they have not used Alodine before assembling it with “Pro Seal” … Maybe not an issue in hot and dry climates … but in humid climates… ??

Here's a picture of an Andair GAS500 fuel bowl showing the nice little nozzle created by corrosion all the way through the bowl. The pilot was complaining of fuel smell. The plane is a Legacy that started flying in 2003. It has about 500 hours.



Before the corrosion got all the way through, the inside of the bowl had a small, shiny, unanodized patch where the corrosion started. The outside looks perfect except for a small black speck where the hole comes through.



Check carefully!
