This allows a fairly clear view of all the fuel lines and junctions. There would even be enough space to spay some anti-rust coating on the lines, if necessary.
The whole inspection procedure took about 30 minutes!

This is not a bad idea - does your vehicle have the aluminum running boards? I might even but a big bulk pack of those push-rivets and just replace them and check it twice a year
