Yes, I think that's the thread I had in mind.
While on the subject, I would recommend never using the std tank prop.
It only works on one side of the tank and therefore imparts a twisting load on the hinge area. In my opinion this is the likely cause of the leakage which often occurs.
My tank prop has been hanging, unused on the shed wall for well over a decade.
Instead I use a length of timber to prop the tank up from the airbox.
Something like 20mm x 80mm and about 450mm long is about right.
Its also a much more secure way of supporting the tank when its raised.
Furthermore, the little plastic end on the std tank prop breaks very easily.
