Re: Vibrating Noise Around The Gas Tank
Noises are tough to track down sometimes.

It Could be a loose fuel pump but you would experiance driveability issues, like little or not enough fuel.
One other thing is the fuel trap inside the gas tank may have came loose allowing it to slide around, which can damage the pup and fuel line inside the tank.

Also Some GA's have had broken coil springs that would rattle, could even be a rear brake clunking.

You'll just have to realy look it over and try and isolate the exact area where its coming from.

Good Hunting!

it was my baffler in my gas tank. It is suppose to be welded in their. It keeps your gas from swooshing around so much, but somehow mind came loose. go figure! I had to get a whole new gas tank
