          Tanks are designed primarliy for glow fuel, but the tank,rubber
          stopper, nylon fittings and klunk are suitable for use with gas,
          However, the silicone tubing supplied with the klunk is NOT. If
          they replace that tubing with a gasoline compatible tubing, it
          will be acceptable. Is recommended to completely empty at the end
          of each flying session and not used for storage of gasoline. Also,
          they should be checked for leaks and possible deterioration once a
          month and replaced annually.
