Good point, how many inches of mercury do you use for fuel tank for testing? I remember something like 4Hg?

It is really a shame that the good green ones rape us with this bio ****.
Or is it done to destroy the amazonas woods to plant and harvest palm oil?

After some looking, a tank with unsupported flat surfaces should handle somewhere between 2 and 3.5 psi. However it's more safe to use "Hg" as it's twice as big a number and easier to apply.
