Hi all

After all the probs I've had with the fuel pump etc on the clubby I've decided to give the whole system a bit of refurb (new hoses, pipes, etc) including cleaning up the fuel tank. Where would be the best place to get some new fuel pipe from (I'm in WA) and is the POR Tank kit the way to go (if needed)?

Advice muchly appreciated.

Eiles

The tank kits are ok if you really need it, you should be able to see inside with a tiny torch whether you need it.

Or maybe use a candle if you haven't got torch. :shock: :lol:

repco type stores, hydraulic repairers or brake places usually have 1/4" pipe if required. Hose at Repco or SCA.

If you do need the sealer, clean the tank with a strong detergent solution and a cup of fine river gravel. That'll clean the loose crud off.

I forgot to mention you have to shake the tank with the gravel in it. :oops:

No probs :)
I've found a few YouTube vids on the process so all good. I also have a spare tank that I'll suss out in case it is in better nick.

Thanks for you help.
