Does anybody have their fuel tank available to weigh? I am wondering the weight of just the fuel tank, empty, with all of the sealant and nothing else.

Thanks.

Mine are complete, but not yet installed on the wing.
One tank weighs (with fuel cap) 17.5 lbs (+/- .25 lbs). My bathroom scales
only go in increments of .5 lbs so if you need better accuracy someone else
will have to supply it.

You are in luck. I just remove the right tank to do a flush and then let
fuel sit in it to check for weepage. Empty tank weight, with fuel cap and
fuel sender: 17.7 lbm.
