Sling TSi Fuel Tank Leak Test Saga

That's a brilliant test.

Aww thanks Jayanth!

Good you checked the front channel for leaks before fully sealing the tank. I was thinking of doing the same, but took a gamble and went ahead with finishing the tank and do the soapy water test. Luckily no leaks on the front channels. Had a few on the end plates and a few rivets along the rear channel. A bit more sealant and all is fixed now. Will test once more before painting 🤞

Thanks! :) Yeah, we were probably being overly paranoid, but these were the first fuel tanks we'd ever messed with and messing with gasoline and boroscopes is always fun, so went ahead and tried it. No regrets on that front, just on us being idiots and missing those holes on the end plates >_

I'm not sure if I understand how the balloon test works, but cool vid!
