Fuel Tank Inspection Cover Leak
I have an aluminum fuel tank which has about a 6-8" inspection cover made
out of the same material. The cover screws through a rubber type gasket and the screws are threaded into the tank material. One or two of the screws have stripped the threads and the tank weeps diesel primarily when it's completely full. Basically I think that I have 2 options to repair this. 1) Redrill/tap with larger screws 2) JB Weld a nut on the inside. Any comments/suggestions? -- Geoff www.GeoffSchultz.org |
