Pete_A Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Afternoon, I've noticed my tank is weeping at the rear at the seem. So do them patch repairs work? Or where can i get a new tank? Only ones ive seem on ebay are corolla ones, would they fit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Pretty sure they can be had new for about £130 not sure i that was at a motor factors or toyota themselves though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Ouch! Try you local motor factors (wilcos euro car parts etc) you'd be surprised what they have available Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete_A Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Anybody got a part number? And is it likely a corolla one may fit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Corollas have a bigger tank, pretty sure they mount completely differently Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Would this work? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171476233541 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete_A Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Ive been looking at them might go av a chat at local auto factors. See if those putty repairs are any good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Well if it did that's a lot of ball ache saved and sorted,do report back mate and let us know how you get on 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gilly Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I had this a couple of years ago, bit of bad ache as it was dripping fuel on my exhaust as well which is never a good thing but i managed to get a 2nd hand one from a trader on here. it was slightly rusty but went to the effort of stripping all of the surface rust off and then coating the entire thing in hammerite to protect it.

fiddlersport Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Quite common the tanks are starting to rot The top of the tank isnt protected snd the factory paint coating is thin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
