NOTE: A fuel tank is comprised of 2 components:
the tank and the filler neck. The filler neck is in-
jection molded and the tank is then blow molded
over the neck. During the molding process, a
small molding seam may appear on the inner
side of the neck at approximately 4 mm (5/32 in)
from the base of the neck. It is normal to have a
molding seam and it should not be confused with
a crack.
