so far so good...also check/replace the flexible line *under* the tank in the front...they tend to get overlooked....they are wide open to the elements and in an "out of sight, out of mind" position...i have had this line rupture...not a huge fire threat(although *any* fuel leak can lead to fire or explosion) but is a pain when you lose your full fuel load suddenly, and get stuck on the side of the road...
