Is this an STC fix for a certified a/c?
Other than wondering what\how paint thinner got in gasoline, I wonder
what the FAA thinks of this float fix....
Especially if it associated with the cause of a crash.
Then, I wonder if the insurance company will pay off.
Some folks don't solder very well or know what kind of solder to use.
I find this kind of knowledge very scary; maybe reckless?

Wondering out loud,
Bob Urban
