nice part of a low-wing, easy to add fuel.
BAD part, easy to remove fuel!
I drained about 10 gallons by wedging a plastic jug with long spout, under my drain sump.
...now it would appears someone else has mastered the same technique....as I'm short pretty much a jug full!
There are commercial locks...and how do you make one that is tamper RESISTANT, but they won't get aggressive and wreck things trying to get it off?
well, this might keep the honest thieves out ( I'm thinking low-life pilots, fuellers, or whatever punks have a use for leaded hi-test????)
too small a lock, you can't slip it on...too big, it slips OFF. This little sleeve, and the safety wire make a decent fit...bit I'm sure with a concerted effort, it would pop off ( I hope) sparing actual tank damage.
oh, and then they head for the caps, where you might get all KINDS of contamination...so I'd rather they stole from the drains.
well....I rather they...well.....you know....!
