This may help stop fuel troubles when cornering.

Ok not sure if this is in the right place, well I was looking for odd bits and have seen this before but forgot but after noticing people saying about issie with fuel tanks I thort id post this, I know its a bit pricey but givrs an idea for what to look for if you hsve issues with fuel sloshing about in the tank.

sorry am I missing something here, aluminium spheres for £40, They look an awful lot like crumpled up tinfoil to me, on closer inspection looks more like ball of rolled up swarf

It looks like they have their level sender in a still well on that pic,

Was hope their were cheaper way and agreed look silly for the money, I thort for sender to be fitted in a tube with holes in so no interferance from packing it may work with foam but not the balls.

I actually know of a team competing with that as a solution. It works (if designed in correctly), don't knock it

Yes it wasn't entirely in jest! Just don't use the ones that come impregnated with soap.

I would expect that by the time you have bought enough of them to do the equic 105 litres the £40 ones do, they will be more expensive!
