leaking petrol tank
Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 6:01 pm
Ah yes the saga continues. Just as I thought I was reaching the end of the rebuild, I drove to the petrol station, filled up the tank and..... it leaks!
Basically the leak is very very slow from the spot welded collar which surrounds the sender unit. The fuel seems to be weeping out from under the collar.
Does anybody know of a cheap fix option to solve this new problem. perhaps some kind of fuel resistant sealant or putty that I can put over the collar? Let me stress that the leak is very very slow so the tank is far from rotton.
Thanks
