Securing the petrol tank

spinoli1 · 20-Mar-2006, 13:40

Afternoon Peeps,

I use Pipercross airtube airfilters, and get a bit worried about gravel in the throttle bodies if the tank comes off during one of my regular visits to the gravel trap (I've paid for the whole track and I'm gonna use it).

I don't want to go to an undertank filter (had one on my 996 - buggered the on-off throttle response at higher revs)

Are there any geniuses (geniiii?) out there who have developed a way fixing the tank more securely than the OE "bolt and bung"/fingers crossed arrangement?
