The fuel/petrol tank in my FC wagon is very dented but quite solid. I have started to remove the dents and it is coming up quite well. I have a question in that it has one particular side dent in the corner diagonally opposite the fuel filler pipe. It looks like it is factory pressed so don't know if I should remove it. Can anyone please tell me if all four corners should be basically the same or does one have a side pressing. I haven't got access to my wagon to see if there is a reason for the dent/pressing. I think a wagon van or ute would have the same fuel tank. Thanks.

Wagon, van and ute all have the same tank body, just the filler necks vary slightly between ute and wagon at least so I believe. There aren't any non symmetrical pressings and all the four corners and sides are identical.

All four corners of the tank are completely identical, no pressed in sections.
Wagon, van and Ute tank are all identical including filler neck.

Makes sense about the filler neck Ken. I was thinking of FB wagon I suppose, not FE FC.
