TedTaylor Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Mayday Mayday VERY URGENT estate tank required for the Round Britain Reliability RunThen spare tank we borrowed from SCG because the one in Woody (the 2500 estate)was leaking has itself been found to have a pinhole right by the drain plug and doubt we can repair it in the time scale we have. Is there anyone with a sound tank we can beg borrow or steal please (I have got spare saloon tanks but no good in an estate ........ :-/). If not too far away can collect today/tomorrow. 01594 832992MUT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard_M Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ted - we have one, currently in a MK1 estate. You're welcome to borrow/buy.We're in Yorkshire - DN148RP.R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ted - I had reasonable success repairing pinholes with epxoy - araldite and fibreglass tissue. It's a bodge and not really something I'd fit and forget but it should last a weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met up with Andy today 'half way' at Swindon and he is very kindly lending me a tank - very many thanks.Luckily we had got ourselves ahead of things so the lost time was not too drastic - just the windscreen as a last major job to do :(MUT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
