    Aluminium fuel tank repair

    in TechTalk

    Posted

    Thanks for the posts guys.  No stock in Caterham until end of March for a new tank so I'll give the metal weld paste a go. I've read loads of good reports on it so it's worth a try. At least it's good practice if I do need to replace it later on :) 

    Aluminium fuel tank repair

    Noticed a strong smell of petrol in my garage and a few drips of fuel on the floor.  On closer inspection fuel pipes and gaskets were all dry / okay but the tank was damp around the bottom rear right hand corner. I isolated all the fuel lines and wiped the tank clean. Left it overnight but tank was definitely leaking the following morning.

    Going to drain and remove the tank for a closer inspection.

    Does anyone know a repairer in the Kent area?
