Hi gang I need advice please regarding a slight leak from my fuel tank. It's an 02/03 Daytona 955i and I've had a smell of fuel in my garage for a while. I took the (plastic) tank off and found that there is a slight weep from the front underside of the tank. There is a captive metal thread each side which a plastic clip fits into and holds the rubber mounting bush in place. Looks like a poor idea really, why not have the mount fit to the frame or even glued to the tank but hey-ho. So guys n gals I've no idea how to resolve this in a safe & permanent way so any help/guidance would be very much appreciated as I just wanna ride the damn thing without fear of being burned alive lol.......... regards. Joe
First things first, Joe - delete the post code from your profile entry! I suspect that your plastic tank has been partially consumed by the ethanol monster - it's a fairly common problem, unfortunately. There'll be someone along shortly to give you ideas about how to resolve the problem!
Line the entire tank with Caswell Plating Epoxy tank liner - this will also seal your tanks against Ethanol effects
