Hmmm....
One of my older gas tanks has a slightly dodgy thread where the fuel
tap screws in. It's OK with my older fuel taps but sadly - one of the weeps
just enough to be damned annoying.
So I purchased new taps....
garg.... They leak too but from the outside... Yes, I have the little sealing washer etc etc etc but they just seem a little looser in the threads which is
not surprising as I'll bet a hat full of rancid weasel guts that they were made in some place with far too many X's in it's name.
Anywho - it's just a weep, not a gush so I was wondering if there is a
pertol friendly method of thread sealing?? Some tape that won't dissolve???
