By the way, the fuel neck that I'm talking about is the snake-like tube that connects the fuel tank to the fuel "nozzle" i.e. where gas gets pumped in.

    Maybe some of you know shops in Banawe that sell these things? TIA.


    nicolodeon,
    the corossion on the filler neck is an easy fix if you have a tube of a two part epoxy based repair kit. it is about 5/8 inch in diameter, about 4 inches long, you knead a portion that you need and stick it to the part where the leak is coming from. the material is unaffected by gasoline, jp 8 aviation fuel, diesel and other petroleum products. it is workable in 10 minutes and ready for service or cures as you install it back.
