Hi Alan

"We are trying to establish if the cause is leaving the tank empty for
extended periods, especially in hot conditions. Its starting to look like
it is!" (Cause of cracking)

Anyone out there have the Auxiliary fuel tank crack? I think it is
probably same material as the main tank, and perhaps more folk have had
them full, then left empty?

May be a combo of becoming brittle from drying out and trying to change
dimension while being somewhat stuck in place?
