Et tu Brutus?  That happened to me too when I
dutifully put fuel in the tank per the manual to
"expand it."   I had to empty it, wait another two
weeks to let it contract, then jig the thing up
with 2 x 4's and threaded rods to clamp it to
prevent bulging.  Put fuel in, wait another two
weeks, and all was fine.  Rome wasn't built in a
day, nor at least this Europa in a few years!
