What PSI are you using?
Sounds like there could be a risk of damage to the tank or fittings with too much pressure!!!!
Cheers, Mick.

madge got a wheel alignment done today... puts the icing on the cake!
sadly i have spotted a leak where the swivel ball bolts to the axle tube so i'll be ringing them down at kippa ring to get that sorted...
I drove mine.
It really needs a service
And a wash
And the dog claw induced scratches buffed out
And a new uhf antenna
And
...
:p

On things like the Superbug, VW ran the washers off the spare tyre. This was great, until, after many dusty or dirty trips you got a flat and found the spare was flat:D
Still, it was a very simple system, and I can't see why you couldn't cobble up something similar to pressurize the tank occasionally. Make up a modified fuel cap and connect it up to the spare.
Changed the front and rear diff oil. Had to make a new tool to remove the fill plug (it is a brass one with a slot) as could not find my other one. Happy that the oil came out clear and nothing on the magnetic plug to worry about.
On a Daihatsu 4wd I had many years ago I made up my own bulbar and sealed it up so I could charge it with air. One hundred and twenty PSI in it would give enough volume to inflate 700 x 16 tyre to about 35 psi.

Overhauled and fitted a "new" zenith carby to the 2a trayback.Got it to idle now! No wobbly throttle shaft!
Cheers Scott
Replaced all coolant hoses & replaced original clamps (all 20 of them) with std utilux ones, removed EGR Cooler & associated plumbing. Doesn't sound much but boy you've got to R&R a lot of other 'stuff' in order to get to some of those hoses. Fortunately I was able to borrow one of those bowden cable/trigger operated tool to release the OE clamps - they must fit all of them prior to fitting engine to vehicle as some were positioned such that you would never get them off without the special release t?ol.
Fitted a new 82 degree thermostat to frank n rover, been for a decent test drive and everything looks to be perfect, very happy
Sold the D2 and put a new battery in the Freelander 2 - that should keep SWMBO mobile & happy, provided she doesn't leave the 'key' in the slot overnight. :o
Then road tested the Defender after replacing all the coolant hoses. Now about to pack ready to go bush tomorrow for nine days. ;) :D
