Interesting!

I have a dented fuel tank to try this out on or are you pulling our collective legs?

Also, how do you stop the fuel tank from rusting once you've had water in there?

Regards

frozen cheese off pizzas is nice too...

I have no idea about the fuel tank stuff, but the theory is true.

Frozen peas expand significantly when defrosted and give of a fair bit of gas. So not very pleasent if you eat a fair few frozen peas.

Same as that victorian glutony punishment, your force fed dry rice, when it expans it ruptures your stomach and you die.

Alright smarty pants, no need to be like that! Was just thinking that this sort of moisture in a tank will cause rust even if you fill the tank shortly afterwards as there's bound to be an air pocket left in there that has been exposed to the moisture!

It does work. But you don't need to worry about water in the tank so much as the 16 litres of mushy peas

Well I shall be testing this theory in the near future when I get all my spare panels ready for a colour change in the summer!
