Jim's tips and tricks
In the last few years I found that many 4x4ers have trouble with there fuel tanks not venting as they should making it hard on the fuel tank having a back pressure or vacuum in there tanks, with the type of tank we have now it making a problem, the tank will crack this is the way I fixed my tank , I cut a small rubber hose and put a T peace in it and run a small plastic hose up in side with a fuel filter from a chain saw to stop dust from getting in. I works great and I not had the old problem now for 2 years.

Thank for doing this jim. I am struggling to fix a pinhole leak in my fuel tank. Everything i have tried stops the leak UNTIL i start the car. Finally i have plugged the leak with SOAP (temp fix) and left the fuel cap. No leak sooo my problem is pressure for sure. Will try this and report back.

Great video mate. I just bought my first diesel and when filling up the tank one time i decided to top it up to the fuel cap. Diesel stated to leak from the top of my tank. Why is this this?
@JimMcNabb44
@JimMcNabb44 2 года назад
Diesel expands a bit if you fill from underground tanks so don't fill them to the top, the biggest problem with the fuel cap is they need cleaning you got to pull them apart and wash all the dust out of them, and if your driving the track in the dusty outback you find they get blocked all the time this is a fix I use on all my 4x4 over the years

@@JimMcNabb44 mate when i said it started leaking from the top of my tank i should have said under the van on the top of the fuel tank where the pump and stuff goes into the top of the fuel tank near the chassis.

hi that's the problem when the breather gets blocked it will leak when the fuel expands, a friend got a split in the tank, that breather will fix the problem
