My (injection) fuel tank has leaked from around the pump seal on & off pretty much from new. I've tried nipping up the bolts on the pump (that helped for a while, but the leak returned), I've tried changing the seal (that helped for a while, but the leak returned), I've tried changing the seal and using a fuel-resistant sealant (guess what - that helped for a while, but the leak returned), and now I've had enough of it.
Question is, should I just stump up the £££ for a new tank or is it worth taking the tank to an aluminium welder/fabricator (anyone know who makes them?) and getting it modified? I was wondering whether a thicker end-plate would be less prone to distortion from the bolts and thus less likely to leak. The current one is quite distorted, although I don't know if that is normal.
