Did you strap it to tight? Used foam tape?

It's strapped down very tight. double sided tape was used

Most likely you have it pulled down too tight. The tie wraps only need to be tight enough to hold the tank in place. The nipple on the bottom will keep it from sliding out to the side.

'the fan is dialed in .002'
Are you sure you dont mean .0002 ?
.002 is way to much (i think)

You're right Zilly I meant .0002. I'll try to loosen the straps as David suggested.

.002 = two thousands of an inch.
