You misread it. It says "When it gets warmer, the gasoline expands..." [not the tank]. (The tank may very well expand too, but that has no bearing.) The gasoline will expand in your car just as surely as it will expand in the ground tank, maybe even more, since the ground is somewhat of an insulator.
Stay in bed and everybody please be quite and don't wake Chuck up as we tip toe out the door 8)
Thanks. I appreciate the consideration. :P
BTW Chuck, hows the oil in your lamp ??? :)
I hope there's enough; i'll have to wait til "the Bridegroom cometh" to know for sure. :mrgreen:

You are correct Chuck. I should have put fuel expands. Not the tank. I stand corrected. Blessings.
