Xt-6 fuel leak

Featured Replies

So I'm having an issue with my 6 leaking fuel at the filler neck. The tube itself was rotted and I thought I'd go ahead and replace it. Didn't seem to help much. It leaks right at the tank where the rubber filler neck tube meets it. I have a feeling the seam in the tank neck is junk and I'm going to have to replace the tank. Last thing I tried was a bit of copper coat on the tank and in the tube to help it all stick together. Now it leaks only when it's warm out, so like constantly recently. Thoughts?

It looks very similar to a GL tank so I wouldn't be surprised if they're not. If you have one, get some measurements off of it and compare to a GL tank. I do know unlike EA81s, the 2wd and 4wd EA82 gas tanks are the same.

Well I've got the ol gl sitting out back with no rear end in it. Ill try and pull the tank soon and look.

GL carb and GL EFI tanks are different. The FI one has surge baffles and different sized ports. -Not sure about bolt up.
