Major gas leak
I bought BDR #486 about a month ago. The fuel filler neck connects to the tank via a 3" rubber gas line. The gas line clamp was not on tight enough and when I was out of town I was surprised by a major gas dumping situation.
Loosened the clamp at the gas tank side , pushed it back ALL the way onto the tank , retighened the clamp and voila!!
This post is primarily for feedback for the assemblers to hopefully ensure that others won't have the same situation.
The only other thing is the roush motor is missing a valve cover chrome bolt.
Should I contact roush, backdraft or look for a chrome replacement locally?

P.S. the roush 402 runs like a champ.
