swirl tanks

[shaun morris]

Has anyone had problems with leaking swirl tanks?
my s2 has started to leak around the neck, can they be repaired or does anyone know who sells replacements

[spivvy]

where exactly is it leaking from ?
normally it is just the rubber seal that had rotted
so the cap doesn't seal properly there is a discussion about this on the forum about fixing these or buy a new cap

But that's for a V8 Dave.

Mine used to leak around the cap a bit, try nipping the locking tabs up tight onto the swirlpot with some pliers.

this tank is leaking where the neck for the cap is attached to the body of the swirl tank. the cap is new and is fine. custom made option sounds good

Why not get your local garage to braze it ?
