tank repair help!


just get a good used one. I'm sure there are tons of people that well see it to you on here for cheap. i sold one on ebay 2 years ago for $25
 
Thanks for the reply ...I got distracted and drilled a hole into my tank when installing tunnel protectors :o| ... I hear Seal-All works as well, although I don't want any leaks to come back and haunt me 30 miles into the trails this winter.
 
If your bound and determined to fix it instead of replacing it, theres 2 ways to fix it, 1st is to remove tank and wash out with hot soapy water and melt the hole closed with a soldering iron, then you would want to rough up the plastic with 80-100 grit sandpaper then apply a coat of jb weld over the spot of repair.

2nd repair option is to install a pop rivet in the hole with a air riveter gun, a large 5/8" headed aluminum one, do the same rough up of plastic and then coat with jb weld.

personally if it were me I would replace the tank being there isnt any snow out yet, but if you cant find one(doubtfull with all the parting out of sleds) these 2 methods will get you back riding in a pinch.
 
Good advice from all ...I elected to buy a good used tank and will install before the season hits.
Thanks SHARMARKEN!
