Gas Tank question

#1 Post by vmx51 » Wed Feb 28, 2018 11:04 am

I have a spare tank I was going to sell , but when I looked at it closely , it appears one of the front mounts has been epoxied on. Gas anyone seen these mounts break off ? I want to sell the tank , but want it repaired properly first.

Solder would be proper but I bet a good epoxy would be also good for a long while. No I have never seen one of these mounts break off but that doesn't mean it can't happen.

I know I could epoxy it on , but it would deter buyers. The one now is severely stuck on , but it looks like ass , and puts people off.
