Bowie69 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Trying to diagnose a petrol running problem on a mates V8.... eventually lead me to this: And this: Yes those very melty/burny bits were INSIDE the fuel tank... I have a new one on order, and NOT Britpart... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I think it would have been less 'fire' and more 'colossal kaboom'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigelw Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 How old was that??? And how bloomin lucky was your mate!!! Hope he put the lotto on, I was always skeptical about having powered pumps and senders in a petrol tank but now I am even more scared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soren Frimodt Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Blimey! Think you should be happy there's not much oxygen inside a fueltank, otherwise that could've gone 'boom' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 Indeed, not that old, still had the zinctec coating on the outside as well as in, maybe 4 years old that I know of about the history of the vehicle. Would have brought a new meaning to being in the hot seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
