RE: [Chrysler300] New question on fuel tank sending units

>The stories of fire and explosion of volatile fuel tanks are
many and true.

Years ago when they used to have a tech trailer at the US
Nationals I watched several fuel tanks be serviced.

There used to be a common area set aside for the Tech Service, it
was provided as a service for the racers that couldn't bring the
tools needed for uncommon repairs or modifications while at the
drags. They used a squirrllcage blower to force air thru a 3"
garage exhaust hose, stuck the open end of the hose into the fuel
tanks and pushed so much air thru the tank that the A/F ratio
never had a chance to even toy with combustionibility.

I think there was a complete air change every 15 seconds or less
inside the tanks being repaired, and this included aluminum
alky/nitromethane tanks.
