Tanked Avanti!

Could it be that keeping the fuel tank more than half full dilutes any trash or fines in the fuel tank (that would not be trapped by the 10 micron fuel filter) that would contribute to wear in the engine?  (Misunderstood the question to refer to life of the Avanti, not the tank!)

Good thought!....However, the answer is that the 'sloshing' action of the fuel in an Avanti's gas tank, if filled to only half or less, is more severe than in a tank which is nearly full....This sloshing action 'works' at the inner baffles, which are electrically welded to the inside of the fuel tank, eventually (possibly) causing a fuel leak!
