Wobbly fueltank?

[Stoyan]

My problem was that the fuel tank on my savage was too wobbly and it was hitting the engine's heat sink, which had melted a spot on the tank itself. So here's what I did : I took a couple of zip-ties and slid on a piece of silicon fuel-line. Then I zipped it onto the Savage's chassis. The result was amazing... The fuel tank snug in so tightly , that I had to push it down with force in order to put the mounting clips into the wholes. Here are some pics :

P.S. I know it's dirty , but I just got back from the beach... Don't worry it's all clean now, I simply can't stand seeing so filthy.:bigsmilie:
