Fuel Tank Problem - Fuel Filler Pipe rubbing on the frame
Just trying to put the fuel tank in. Expected this to be one of the easier tasks. However, when I put the straps on (new tank from Factory Five) the fuel filler tube hits the frame as it is coming out of the tank, so does not sit flush with the tank as I suspect it should. The tank seems to be sitting in the right place as it is up against the rubber/plastic stops on the bottom of the frame as required. I also had trouble getting the straps where they need to be, and therefore haven't tightened them beyond a couple of turns of the nut. Somehow I think I'm missing something obvious, but just not figuring it out. Any thoughts are sure appreciated. (I can put spacers in to lower the tank, but that doesn't seem like a good fix). Thanks in advance.
