does any body in a 150mile radius of chester have a fuel tank and NOT a crap plastic one!!

My plastic tank from MK has just split and my SVA retest is on monday at 3pm. (the tank wasnt split last week for the 1st test!:mad any way if any body has a metal tank that they will sell would be eternally gratefull!! and that i can collect tomorow (sunday). i have heard a few people have had this same problem, did MK replace the tank because it is a faulty goods??

the reason for the urgencey is that adrian fluu are canceling my insurance on wedensday and its looking like i`ll loose my premium (£491) because i havent provided a registration plate yet.....

Not sure if he's in your 150 mile limit. He usually has some tanks made up. Give him a ring with your measurements. 83 miles according to route finder.

Good lads at Allyfab. Knocked me up a tank for the Viento to my design for £90 cash. Bargain!

I had a problem with a split plastic tank, emailed PTM (the bloke who makes the tanks for MK) and he said he would repair it or replace it, so i asked for his address so i could send it back. Didnt hear back, sent another email asking for refund, heard nothing back.

MK7 has had the same problem he was trying to phone PTM last time i spoke to him, i dont know how he got on.

Rob do you have a contact for Chris (PTM) as I now have the same problem with my tank, it split this weekend, fortunately I am not sweating on the SVAas you were I am far too far behind the drag curve for that. Or has anyone else a good contact.
Could you please U2U me if you have.

Guys,

I've got one of PTM's placcy tanks. Not been contaminated with fuel yet, but have read thru all your stories, with mounting alarm. What causes this problem? Is there some kind of chemical reaction with petro-chems?

P.S. What kind of plastic was used for these tanks?
