Horrible squeaky noise

Mine did it when I was solo, but it does change depending on how much gas is in the tank.

What I actually did was loosen the tank a little, lift it slightly, stick an air hose under there and blow it out as well as I could. Evidently that worked for now.

I should look at my thermostat housing as I suspect it's seeping, and I'm still on the original thermostat too. I'll have to pull the tank for that, and I'll do a real job of it then.

Horrible squeaky noise

I get a squeel too, sorta like the old v-belts squeeling in the older model cars. Remember those? Guess I'll loosen tanks and clean/lube the bushings too.
