84 V20 fuel tank question?

With the hatch off/open step lightly on to the tank and see if it will "oil can". This will sometimes cause any water or fuel trapped between the foam and tank to shoot upwards and might give you an idea about your tank condition if its fuel shooting out. Not trying to scare you, but mine had holes the size of your fist and the foam was holding it in the tank.

could also pump some fuel in a glass jar or check your filters. dissolved foam looks like white sand. this is an indication the foam is coming into contact with foam somewhere. mine had a slight fuel smell, turned out to be a corroded fuel fill hose. the steel wire was contacting the al tank and ate through the fill neck.
