Thread: Petrol Tank Liner

I used the KBS kit for a couple of reasons

It was cheaper than the same size POR kit
While it had a kit the same size as the POR kit, it also had a 'motorcycle' 45 litre kit which I figured would give me less waste than the full kits (and was cheaper again).

It appears to have worked very well.

When doing this job, it pays to have two or more tanks ready for the sealer . Just pour the sealer from one tank to the next . I did two tanks at the same time . The sealer goes off in the can and it's a shame to waste it .

Mike,

Good idea, I have another tank I'll check out, I think it's OK except the soldering between the tank and the support frame has come apart in one area. Maybe I should solder that back together and do the two at the same time

I'm not in a hurry because I can run on the auxiliary tank. I must check that the valves in the Facet pumps are OK, I don't want fuel being pumped back through the original tank line. Thinking about it I'll find a fitting to block off the original line just-in-case.

I'll get to my local metal spinners in the next week or so and ask about spinning the filler necks. Shouldn't be a problem just quantity vs. cost as always.......

Thanks Ian.

I see it's a 2 to 1 mix, but what quantity are you talking about.
