Abstract
In a fuel tank for a motor vehicle having shells tightly connected together, positioning aids are arranged in proximity to a weld. The positioning aids permit an accurately fitting assembly of the shells prior to welding. This makes the fuel tank particularly inexpensive to manufacture.
Claims7
