Hi;
I replaced the rear of the boot floor a while ago and I have now finished all of the other welding. The last piece to fit before I start painting is the Fuel Tank Strap Bracket the problem is I cannot work out where it fits?
I did a test fit of the Fuel Tank (and scratched it in the process ggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrr) but it just threw up more problems.
The Seam that runs around the Fuel Tank, is it supposed to fit behind the piece of metal that the Boot Securing Strap bolts to? I can't seem to get the tank behind it? I have tried bending the bracket out of the way but when I did the Filler Neck wouldn't fit in properly so on mine I guess the Fuel Tank Seam sits on the outside which means that I have top fit the Boot Door Strap Bolt before I fit the tank.
When the tank is in, where the Fuel Tank Strap Bracket needs to go it touches the tank so I'll probably have to trim it down a bit.
There is a hole in the bottom rear of the seam that runs around the Fuel Tank, I thought the Bolt that holds the Fuel Tank Strap went through this hole but I now know that it does not.
Any pictures to show where the Fuel Tank Strap Bracket fits in the Boot Floor would help?
Thanks
