Here it is:
covered fuel filler hole with the red aluminum plate… this shows the angle I come in.. not bad..
the fuel cap is not bottomed out onto the sheet metal… I have to “flair” the ribs for it to come down! I guess another 5mm
I going to see if I have a way to get a pilot hole going and then shoot with the hole saw and an extension from the outside in… maybe..🤔
it definitely will be a Chinese puzzle putting the finished project together..
the big 3” hole would have been the easiest but -the gap- no! Patience!
