Potash123 26 #1 Posted November 8, 2018 My little push along has a slight leak along the top seam of the plastic petrol tank. It only weeps slightly but I would like to seal it with some form of resin. The plastic has a mottled finish some should grip OK. Any resins recommended to fix this on this spare mower. Thank you.

Wristpin 400 #2 Posted November 8, 2018 If it’s a raised seam you may be able to fuse the leaking area with a soldering iron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Potash123 26 #3 Posted November 8, 2018 Thought about that, worried about going straight through it. Finding another tank will be horrendous and costly. Thanks for reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fix'em all 49 #4 Posted November 8, 2018 Is it one of the Mountfields with a one piece fuel tank & pull start assembly. They always leak & the best bet is to find another engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wristpin 400 #7 Posted November 8, 2018 If you are considering the "glue" route, I'm not sure about JB Weld but I would suggest Q Bond or the slightly oddly named Quicksteel Plastic Repair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
