Hello Friends ,
When my car was restored 2 years ago I was under the impression that the
body shop restored my entire fuel tank .
Most of the tank was restored, rust proofed and painted. Over the past
few months I noticed fuel leaking but could not identify where the fuel was
coming from exactly.
I finally saw first hand when I filled up the fuel tank that the tank is
leaking from under the seal of the vent tube. This seal is held in with three
rivets.
Does anyone have a way to drill out the rivets without having metal filings
fall into the fuel . I spoke today to a company that produces a 5 minute
epoxy and they believe this could be my easiest way out . The epoxy is made
by Devcon and it is called epoxy gel resin # 14265.
Anyone have any easy suggestions?
Best,
Bob Levitt
