why? I wasn't suggesting that you would put the whole cylinder in through the petrol cap, I presumed people would realise that it needed cutting up first!

I think some tanks might be but the SV is single skinned.

Save all the pressurising whoas and worries with extracting expanding peas from the tank..... just try the dry ice technique

Whew, for a minute there I thought you were suggesting putting dry ice inside the tank.

My tank is far too knackered for that technique to work, seems
worth a go on a small dent though.

FILL YOUR CAR WITH PEAS. I'll pay for the peas, I'll even boil the water for you.
