Dear Mr. Priver: Thank your for your letter of March 29, 1974, requesting informatio and documentation concerning Fuel System Integrity Standards.; The GSA 515/26 Standard which you mentioned was published July 15 1966, and was effective October 13, 1967. This standard was effectively supplanted by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 301 which was effective January 1, 1968. A copy of this original Standard No. 301 is enclosed for your information along with a recent amendment (F.R. 39, 10586, March 21, 1974) that substantially upgrades the requirements of this standard.; We do not consider it appropriate to give advice concerning privat incidents or controversies, beyond what is contained in our regulations and other public issuances. You may find it helpful to contact private-sector groups such as the Society of Automotive Engineers for further information.; Sincerely, Robert L. Carter, Associate Administrator, Motor Vehicl Programs;
