FireHead Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 It has to ears where it mounts under the seat. . .the 1 is crackd and leaks You're only hope is to get some plastic scrap that is the same type as the tank is made out of. Then, you will need to melt it into the crack with a soldering iron or micro torch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 gouge the crack with a hack saw , thin file or even serated steak knife. then, flush the tank/crack if all fuel. next, cut the ear off, and soften the plastic by applying lacquer thinner to the crack, and letting air dry, while you mix up some plastic epoxy. make sure it's chemical/fuel resistant, and repair the crack, making sure to get the epoxy all the way through the crack. now, make a new mount out of folded sheet metal, one layer against the bottom, and the other overlaping the crack on the side, and epoxy to the tank. if you leave the cast ear attatched, it's almost sure to crack again.

Rodneya Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I think your best bet is to take it to somebody that does plastic welding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
