Has anyone had a problem with the tank to pump hose leaking fuel? I have just got my saff put back together recently and it leaking petrol out of the two pipes on the tank, the main tank to pump hose and the small return section. At first I thought it might be a blockage and the tank was pressurising, but it leaks exactly the same with the petrol cap removed.

I have bought some new 15mm hose to try, just wondered if anyone has had the same problem in the past??

 

Old pipe can certainly cause issues like this, but so can old tanks where the pipe stubs crack around them when disturbed.

Thanks. With my luck, i will assume its the more expensive of the two. wheres the best place to get a replacement tank from??

 

Chris. i got my new tank from autosilencers in tynemouth. 5 mins away from you and got it the next day. If you do need it giz a bell and ill sort it for you.

 

was just about to say the same thing mate cant go wrong with autosilencers

 

I hope the gaffa at autosilencers reads this scott! We might get a bit discount for plugging his company lol.

 

Will let you know tomorrow mate. Its got it MOT on wednesday so its gonna need it sorting. Hopefully it will just be the pipes. Thanks for helping me out with the bits today too. It must be like alladins cave in your shed

 

It used to be mate but unfortunately most the bits out of me shed are now on your car!
