Peel the paper backing to expose the adhesive then apply to the new tank as shown in the illustration below. NOTE: Before applying the new insulation pads, make sure that area of the tank is clean and dry. • When replacing only the fuel delivery tubes, the existing SEAT TANK B (insulation pad) material can remain in place on the original fuel tank. • When replacing both the fuel tank AND the fuel delivery tubes, SEAT TANK B (insulation pad) does NOT need to be installed onto the new tank due to the additional tube cushions included with the new tubes.
