Rattle in tank

Post by Croc »

Anyone out there have a rattle in or under the tank? Spoke to the dealer who said that it was common for the fuel guage float to rattle and that it was not an easy fix! Anyone else heard of this or should I get under the tank for a look-see?? :?

Dealer had done some work on the brakes and replaced the battery a while back. I found the oil coolers were loose after that little episode!!
