Fuel tank renewed

Took Pod in to Buslab to have the fuel tank unclogged a few days ago, got it back today (one day before the maiden voyage).

Tank was removed, boiled out, and relined. Better than new! Also had a new filler elbow installed, since the old one's birds-beak is what broke off to clog the tank.

While it was there, went ahead and did the 300 mile break-in oil change. All ready for the trip!

Here is a picture of what came out of the tank!
