I resealed a fuel tank vent line that has been leaking since 2001. It was resealed in 2005 and 2006. Flexible hose replaced in 2007.
The sealant on the outside of the tank was some sort of gooey stuff that acted a lot like sticky silly putty. I didn't take a before pic on that one. Me bad.
The inside had been resealed at some point. The sealant application looked very professional. Except for the fact that the vent line was detached, it looked great.
Before and after pics attached.
Oh, yea, the outboard fuel tank access cover had the sealant that AD 89-18-08 should have replaced. It was leaking very badly.
