    Extend the breather pipe with some black nylon tube after pulling the breather and hockey stick off and feed it up the chassis to the engine area under the bonnet. It won't leak in here and will stop it getting any water in the tank and as an added bonus you can put a little air down the hose to pressurise the tank in order to prime the fuel system.

    With Bear this has happned twice.

    First time it was a slight split in upper hose - repaired and all good.

    before this happened I used to fill the car up to the nozzle! Even giving it a shake to get the air bubbles out! and no problems until that day

    2nd time, was because I filled past the first click!

    It is designed to be the fill cut off point apparently. I stop now when it clicks off and no more leaks etc.


    Cheers
    Hope that helps

    It did happen again and Daz fitted a second hand tank and rerouted the breather pipe.....
    Apparently not the same fault as previously but this time the inlet pipe split around the tank and when the tank and auxillary were full it leaked out.
    Bloody thing is giving me the whoops....
