kingbobdole Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 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?

Turbone Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Maybe put a inner sleeve in the tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbobdole Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Are gl tanks the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 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.

kanurys Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 GL carb and GL EFI tanks are different. The FI one has surge baffles and different sized ports. -Not sure about bolt up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
