Leakage on cylinder head or gas tank?

[Member 28982]

Yup. One of my screws on gas tank underbelly has a tiny crack cuz fluid forms a single drip every hour or so... Wondering if until new tank arrives... Would some JBweld or some other type of oil/gas resistors gooey type silicone work....?

nope, too much tension & vibration on those bolts to get a good seal - tie a rag around it so it doesn't drip on your leg till you get a new one

I'm going to try out Frankenstein's Velcro mounting on my tank before it gets to the point of leaking, that they have a common leak problem due to vibration is a really, really bad flaw.

New fuel filter and new fuel line arrive today, hopefully my new (2L)0.528 gallon tank arrives as well... Leakage from right bottom mounting screw near fuel control valve on tank.
I'm excited it only took 3 days via Amazon Prime
