Possible Leak

Bargain - only needs a 'rinse'

 

From my days working on arranging the de-commissioning of underground fuel tanks for Esso filling stations, IIRC the best way to de-gas a fuel tank is by using nitro-foam.

It works sort of in the same way as hot water and fairy liquid; apart from disposing of the waste material.

The 'bubbles' force all the explosive gases out then eventually dissolves and evaporates.

Cheaper and quicker than to fill with water and obviously not a problem with disposal.

 

What are we looking at then..........No seriously both sides or just portside.

 

Nice job

 

What's happened to your V piece.

 

Post reported.

 

In the other photograph / thread the front V piece was / is missing or just not reinstalled.

 

I've looked again at the 900ss and they don't come with the lower V fairing piece do they.

 

Leaky v-pieces ought to be discussed in the Lounge, surely?

 

Part 27. On all the carbed SS models with half fairing unless the higher level oil cooler is fitted.

IIRC doesn't apply to the 600 because the cooler is up underneath the headlight.

But actually it isn't really needed if the other fixings are all good.

 

also make sure you get your V the right way round.
