Is the tank steel? Or aluminum?
I had the idea of making a trap door, welding hinges on and putting neodymium magnets on the other side of the hinge, putting it down into the tank and sticking it to the upper inside of the tank. The trap door would be the shape of the saddle but not be small enough to flip back and forth. It'd get stuck on the side of the fuel pump. So turning right the door would shut, turning left it's open and it wouldn't be air tight so filling up fuel would still get across. I just need a spare tank to cut open and get the shape.



Fuel starvation fix...possibly. Suggestions?
