Hey guys,

A few weeks ago on a cool morning I started up my 2000 Cyclone and heard a rattle. What I was hearing was the front of the tank rattling where it loops into the frame. Funny thing is is I havent heard it since. There is a little bit of play there but not much. I know the bolt securing the back of the tank is tight. Is this somthing I should be concerned with? Suggestions? Thanks,

Eric

I had the same problem. While it did not affect anything, it was annoying. So I just pulled it back enough and wrapped it with a bit of electrical tape and reinstalled it. See if it works for you.

You might have a tank isolator that came loose. On my S3T the one on the right side came unglued from the tube and the tank rattled a bit.
