Fuel leak

ukdave · Apr 5, 2013

Hi guys, after a ride I've been getting a whiff of fuel when parking it up in the garage so today after another ride I lifted the tank and seem to have a weep from the block/ plate that the wiring goes into for the fuel pump etc.it looks like it has a gasket and 2 bolts to fix to the pump plate/ assy and I'm wondering is it possible to change without taking all of the pump etc out and where I can get one. The pump to tank join is dry all the way round just seems to be weeping from this 'block' at the joint. anyone had this problem before? Cheers

Griff @ Aprilia Performance or Tash (On here) - (See I remembered this time - Mark !), Can sort you out a gasket.

Do you have a plastic or metal tank ?

If plastic you maybe suffering from the good old ethanol distortion issues, the breathers maybe blocked, which ever way I would suggest its tank off and pump out for a full check over.

It's a metal tank, 99 model, it's not leaking from the tank to pump surface, it's leaking from the little block on the back that looks to be held on by two bolts, how can I get hold of the above guys to get a gasket? Many thanks
