Dracoro Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Anyone know where I can get one? it's the rubber pipe that joins the tank to the filler neckl held on by 2 jubilee clips. Mine keeps pulling the jubilee clips over the join so petrol leaks under hard cornering when the body flexes. I'm thinking that maybe the rubber pipe has lost its' rubberishness (! so instead of stretching, it just pulls off. Quote
felters Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 I'd firstly check that it isn't the tank shifting when you corner and pulling it apart. The best stuff I found was at Merlin Motorsport. It's about £1 per INCH though. SVC do some as well - same price. Cheers Mike Quote
Dracoro Posted September 2, 2004 Author Posted September 2, 2004 How can I know if the tank is shifting? It all seems firmly in place (i.e. it doesn't move in it's holdings if I push it) Can I get the piping from somewhere like B&Q/Wickes or a plumbers merchant etc.? Quote
Kevin Wood Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Most rubber pipe of the like on sale at B&Q will not be resistant to petrol so will probably perish in time and give you a bigger problem. Westfield might be a good bet for buying a replacement since they'll be geared up to supplying it in 6" lengths. Kevin Quote
