I am currently wrapping up a syncro gas tank removal, clean up, refurb, and reinstall. I had to rip all of the old insulation that was wrapped around the fuel tank in order to get it out so I am going to be putting some new insulation back, however, I was curious if anyone knows the actual reason for the insulation? Is it just for sound deadening? Does it serve some other purpose that isn't obvious? What have others used to replace the original insulation (which I destroyed taking the old tank out)? Any advice would be appreciated as always. Ken Wilford John 3:16 www.vanagain.com |
