Well, its back (chained) on the flatbed and off to the dealer. He said he's never seen one leak there before (left side when seated) leaking at the top. He said I will have it in about a week. Has anyone experienced a fuel leak on a BX with the new black fuel tank? I know they had problems with the white ones (from what I can gather).
I have to think it's quite a coincidence that this occured immediatly after having my FEL installed (same area).

I usually don't believe in coincidence. What steps are you taking to control separation anxiety?

I was mistaken about the well known BX tank leak. The tanks are not different colors now. The white thing that is known to have had a leaking problem is a small minitank with nozzels to distribute fuel. My primary (big black ABS plasic) tank is leaking at the mold seam.
seperation anxiety: well, I guess I just feel pretty much defeated. I have other issues weighing at me right now that accumulate in to a state of learned helplessness. I guess I just hope it all works out. I'm sure the tractor will. I'm a little less sure of the other stuff.
