2019年6月30日 · There are various tank sealers, like redkote, kreem, por-15 that you might be able to swish around where the leak is. I doubt these would stick to a plastic tank very well overall, but you might be able to get it to fill the leaky spot. I'm with the prior responses - plastic weld it with a soldering iron. Side note: lots of ventilation if you do.

2010年9月29日 · If you want to repair the tank yourself and do it cheaply then the soldering iron as mentioned in one of the previous posts does a good enough job of melding the crack back together, then take a piece of metal flyscreen and inbed it into the plastic covering the crack, it will inbed by just heating it with the soldering iron tip and pushing it …

2010年3月23日 · My 395 was leaking gas, but I couldn't tell from where. Pulled the tank and found the top had partially separated at the seam. I just cleaned it up and lightly melted it with a soldering iron. The melted plastic flowed into the seam and sealed up real nice.

2002年4月7日 · I have recently acquired a Shindaiwa 488 that contained some old fuel, sludge, pond water, and God knows what else. But, I was wondering what the best solvent is to remove the residual crud? Brake Parts cleaner (I'm nervous about melting the plastic tank), Carb Cleaner, Parts Cleaner Solvent...

2009年1月22日 · For a plastic fuel tank, I would first try fresh E10 with a little Sta-Bil and a good slug of seafoam mixed in. This gives you a reasonably benign mix of ethanol, naptha, gasoline and other "petroleum distillates" to dissolve the crud.

2010年9月23日 · OK, this would probably apply to many saws;saws that have a split oil/gas tank assembly seam. In resurrection of my old Husky 2100, I had the tank split apart. Looks like at the factory the two parts are put together with a press fit and then they spray some sort of liner in there. I sealed...

2012年2月21日 · Not in my case. It was an MS025. I cut off the remaining stub with a Dremel tool and drilled the plastic tank with a brad point bit to get a smooth hole. The threaded portion of the barb does not need to go deep into the fuel tank - cut it off if it is too long. Look for a small diameter thread if clearance is an issue.

2009年1月28日 · husky 455 guy said the Handel was bent . picked up on ebay . said it still run,s but they dropped a tree on it and it bent the handle. So I won the bid it show,s up the handle was bent and a 1 inch by 1 1/4 inch hole in the gas tank. so it will run as long as you put a small amount of fuel and...

2009年1月4日 · My "brand new" refurbished Husky 435R had its first tank of gas disappear, only ran it 10-min. Today I added a few ounces of gas and watched and wiped with a paper towel. As soon as I dried the inside of the handle, fresh gas would appear at the seam.

2017年5月17日 · Hope it holds up well for you, I have several pieces of fuel tank plastic saved up to use as donor material for when I weld up other tanks,it really works out good,have done 5 tanks and 6-7 handles ,all are still out there working.
