ABOUT 25 MILES FROM DESTINATION APT, THE PLT SAID THE ENGINE QUIT. HE SWITCHED FROM EMPTY LEFT TANK TO THE RIGHT TANK, WHICH STILL INDICATED 1/2 TO 3/4 FULL. HE WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE, AND DUE TO HIS ALTITUDE OF 1500 AGL, ELECTED TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY LDG. DURING THE LANDING ON A RURAL GRAVEL ROAD, THE ACFT SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE. THE PLT SAID THAT THE LEFT FUEL CELL BLADDER HAD BEEN REPLACED 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT, DUE TO PREVIOUS LEAKS, BUT DOCUMENTATION OF THE REPLACEMENT WAS NOT FOUND BY THE INVESTIGATIVE AUTHORITIES.
