tightening  the  center  screw  be sure not  to  over
tighten  it. You  just  want  it snug enough to pull the 
rubber stopper tight against the tank.

 Hold the tank in place inside the fuselage by two
rubber banks around the tank, attaching the banks 
to the tabs in the plywood former that supports the 
tank.

rooms you need to cut off the covering. These small
rooms are like the windows of  plane. You may find
some plastic board in your parts bag. 

Stick these plastic board on the slots you just cut
off inside the fuselage.
