262XP leaking fuel tank

[drythropple]

Help! My 262xp has developed a leak in the fuel tank, any ideas? Or has anyone got a seconhand one lying around

Is it definitely the tank itself and not the plug? I've got a 2000 model and the plug seal is going; have to tighten it slightly with the spanner now.

sometimes the fuel pipe will split! are you sure it is not that?

Its definately the tank, down the seam

super glue will seal the leak make sure free from petrol then apply, have old top handled thats been glued about 4 years ago and still holding fine.

Liam, if you're asking me no - definitely the stopper; tightening it stops the leaking.

 

If you're asking drythropple I'll shut up.

 

Cheers.
