hi,

I just bought myself an MPI fuel tank to use for my Mini Turbo project, I need to ship the thing to Iceland and then store it for some time, any tips, tricks and advice you can think of!?!

Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

Just wondering, my mpi tank has a sucking noise as air rushes in when i open the cap. I thought these had breathers? After a long run then opening it it does a bigger one
