## What is wrong

THE HOT PLATE WELD WHICH ATTACHES THE VAPOUR VENT VALVE TO THE   TOP OF THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK MAY PARTIALLY FRACTURE, ALLOWING   VAPOUR OR FUEL TO ESCAPE FROM THE TOP OF THE TANK THROUGH THE   FRACTURE. IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE A FIRE COULD   RESULT.

CORRECTION: TANKS WILL BE REMOVED AND INSPECTED FOR THE WELD   INTEGRITY OF THE VAPOUR VENT VALVE CARRIER. TANKS WITH INADEQUATE WELDS WILL BE REPLACED.
