fuel leak

john s · Jul 21, 2014

Hi All,
new to the forum,
I have a 200 rsv mille metal tank which ive owned 3 years after turning my back on inline screamers for the big thumper.
Right to the bad news, I have fuel running from one of the breather pipe which lead from the tank to the lower right hand side near the foot peg.
It will start to leak over quarter of a tank and runs out the pipe like a tap running.
Any advice on an easy fix.
thanks

The pipes inside the tank have failed.

Drain tank

Tank off

Pump out ,you'll see the problem 2 pipes that go back towards the fuel cap surround.

They will need replacing

Thanks for the reply.
Any idea where i can source the pipe from.
I know it need to be submersable in fuel

you can get away with non submersable pipe for a short while ..i have with no issues in over a year

most motorfactors should be able to supply in-tank fuel hose
