Well I have to drop the tank again because I can't hear the pump prime, it was about 5-6 years ago when I put in a genuine pump with sender. I checked the leads with a voltmeter and its getting power for the prime (goes on then off in about a second or 2). After turning the key to the second position, cannot hear no prime and even with the gas cap off, can't hear a thing. Keith from BP says its probably due to the fact that I didn't drive it enough and the motor just got varnished up from old gas. Well I bought a new genuine pump and I guess I'll figure it out soon enough. Any other pointers or guesses as to why the pump stop working?
Yep thats the first thing I checked, shocked the **** out of me when the rubber handles didn't insulate enough though hehe Rebiult the whole distributor with new parts like 5 years ago.
I too currently have a steel tank witht eh handy plug
,...but there is a small crack at the filler. I understand the plastic is more durable... any thoughts?
I would just remove the tank, wash it out with water, plug the ends and fill it with water like halfway so it can be welded. Course you'd have to make sure its completely dry before reinstalling.
Well there the leak and the dents... the leak is temporarily (6 months) stopped with JB weld... just looking for options.
