Just in case anyone is thinking that fuel tanks made with MGS epoxy will stand
up to prolonged auto-gas / ethanol exposure, I'm here to tell you that they
won't.

I'm in the process of removing and replacing the inner skins in both fuel
tanks on my Cozy IV.

See http://forum.canardaviation.com/showthread.php?t=4594 for a detailed report
and pictures. I'll post more pictures on my web site when the repair job is
complete.

Chris Barber - we need to buy each other a beer :)
