| Post subject: | Crack in fuel tank! |
Hi all, I went out in the shed to tinker with my 907 when the smell of gasoline met me in the door... Looked everywhere, no leaks but a very strong smell then removed gas tank and found a fine crack halfway round the front support of the tank. Any tips of fixing this without welding and destroying the paintwork.  Krakan

A thing like this happened to me when I had the 906. The tank leaked from the rear support (near the seat) where there already are two stock welding. The welder was able to fix it without any damage to the paint. If, as I have understood, the crack is hidden, you will not have too much troubles to make weld it :thumbup: . Ciao |

mark, if your talking about the brand new 907 fuel tanks that listed on e-bay last year, they did sell. i bought 2 of them on e-bay over the past year. shipping them to the usa was extemely expensive, increasing the cost of the tanks by more than 50%. they do appear on e-bay from time to time. since these 907 fuel tanks listings always seem to be in europe, the shipping to krakan in sverige will be considerably less than to me here in philadelphia, USA. krakan, try and find a new one if you can. a much better solution than welding the old one. elton |

| Post subject: | Cracked tenk |
Hi all, my tank is cracked where the front support is welded to the bottom of the tank, however the crack is very small and i have sanded down the surface and covered it with epoxi glue and painted the small repair with a primer and a humbrol red model paint (a very close match in the colour) but nobody will notice because it´s the underside of the tank anyway. I am going to cover the inside of the tank with tank sealer and then hopefully it will be no more gas smell. I will let you know how it goes. :thumbup: :thumbup: Krakan |
