Plastic tank leak

My plastic tank has suddenly decided it was goig to wee a full tank of fuel all over the floor. On closer inspectiopn I found it to be leaking from every seam. Ive just replaced it with a very well made ali tank from mk himself.

I have contacted the man who made it and he is considering giving me a partial refund.

Has anyone else had these tanks leak?

Scotlad or Macspeedy had problems with a plastic tank. Something to do with LRP petrol I think





Scot's do it better in Kilts.

Mine has gone too, PTM said he would repair it or send me a new one. Then i found out alot more people have had the problem, so asked from a refund, didnt hear from him after that.
Got Viper to make me an Ali one for £60.
Think there is around 5 - 6 people who have had the problem now.
