Default Re: Gas seepage at steering column

Aviation fuel sealant available from SkyGeek.com. PPG Areospace PR 1422. comes in a few drying time formulas. After drying it forms a flexible rubbery layer of protection. Difficult to remove after drying. Its a two part mixture. MEK for cleanup.

Mix and apply to clean dry areas. For sealing of intergal aircraft fuel tanks. Best if applied to seams during assembly but I have used in in situations like described. I had the same issues with my 31 Coupe and purchased the later steering support from Berts that eliminates the load on the fuel tank. My leak has stopped for now.
