They get hot when exposed on low fuel tanks, then you start pouring cool or cold fuel in during filling. This locks them up and causes hard hard wear on bearings and bushings. Yes this is an educated statement:) There are numerous statements from manufacturers as well that say all the same things. [/QUOTE]
