Title: petrol tank
Post by: markymarc on August 02, 2014, 06:30:54 PM
Hi guys,
I am thinking of getting and fitting a new petrol tank as it could be a problem with my 126?!
Just want to know the best place to get one? (cheap, quick & easy)
And how hard is it to fit?
It may solve all my problems (or not)

Cheers
marc

German ebay, I did see a link someone posted here not too long ago but was surprised at the price! Bit of a pain with the clips on the filler neck that are accessible underneath the trim on the passenger side. I removed my seat to get to and remove the panel easier but may not be needed but beware it will probably break lol.

Yeah it was me


Post from other thread:

"Yep you can get a new tank for €19 via ebay Germany. Even if you add postage to the UK it is still cheaper than UK sellers are offering.

Do you know if the tank is the cause of the issue?

Have you gone through the troubleshooting steps on the other thread yet?
