Sound proofing / deadening

[412usa]

I find the notion of hearing the fuel sloshing around a little surprising. I
have never heard it in the 412 and assume that the construction is similar.
The aluminium fuel tanks in the V8's (and also my 405's) are fitted with
internal baffles, much like airplane tanks, to slow the weight transfer when
cornering. I have heard that remade tanks and in some cars with fuel
injection have had that baffles removed and this might create the problem
described. Is this the problem here?
