Re: HCPU Fuel Tank

Mods done and new tank is in.

Now fits better than last one!

Filler tube is rotten however - anyone have a good 2nd hand spare of the tube before I buy a new one?

Tank will be out again for painting but at least I can start it easily off the key now.

Re: HCPU Fuel Tank

Thanks for the suggestion, Nrc5829 superseded by 599234 From what I can see

Doesn’t mean they’re exactly the same though

599234 has lock ring and return pipe

Re: Restoration

Hi Cliff Weld a m8 or m10 washer to the broken studs then weld nut to the washer on 3 flats. Get plenty of heat into the washer weld, like doing a plug weld. Much easier to weld washer even when stud is broken flush. And welding nut to washer easier too! Let the heat soak in then wind out. Casings a...
