re: Boat Fuel Tank - Pressure Testing

That's good. Filling it any more is really pointless for checking leaks and will likely damage the tank, especially if it's 1/8" thick or less.
It's much safer to do a hydrostatic test with a head tube than filling with air. If you over pressurize a pneumatic test, a rupture will be much more violent.

This for sure.
Thanks guys for correcting me on the right pressure. Like I posted, it has been a long time ago I did a testing.
