Re: Fuel Filler Tube Weeping Posted by Gary Stottler [Email] (#1463) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Gary Stottler) on Wed, 21 Feb 2024 06:07:23 In Reply to: Fuel Filler Tube Weeping, LJB, Tue, 20 Feb 2024 14:01:46 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I am not sure the dimension of the filler inlet, will try to measure one soon. One thing I ran into on my '78 was that the metal nipple the fill hose connects to on the tank is soldered into the tank and the solder had cracked. So I was getting a weep that looked like the hose joint but it was really the tank itself. I'd try cleaning everything up with solvent then spraying foot powder on the joint to help see where the leak is actually coming from. I hope that's helpful!
Best,
Gary
