Re: Cracked spree gas tank repair
So the POR15 kit seems to have worked wonders. Not a single drop of fuel has leaked out in the past couple of weeks. I think following the directions to the letter was the reason for success. New bystarter has arrived, I'll try and install it today or early this week. Also got some new belts so I'll...

Re: Measure Bystarter Needle Spring
I just bought one for $8 on amazon since mine is in 2 parts. I'll pass on a review once it comes in.

Re: Cracked spree gas tank repair
So I decided against using the versachem tank repair and went with POR15 tank stuff. Followed the directions to the letter. Multiple rounds of degreaser, a good long soak with the metal prep acid stuff and a solid half hour of rolling the coating around the inside of the tank. Once I drained the tan...

Re: Cracked spree gas tank repair
Picked up a versachem fuel tank repair kit today. I'll give it a whirl tomorrow evening and see how it works. Fingers crossed it works out.

Re: Cracked spree gas tank repair
I'll post pictures when I can, it is sitting in the shop at work right now so I likely won't see it until Monday. Looks to be a hairline crack along the side and possibly one around the fuel outlet that I very well could have reopened when reinstalling the petcock. They aren't big, but enough to let...

Cracked spree gas tank repair
So as I was installing an inline fuel shut off today I noticed that the fuel tank has been cracked, repaired and is leaking again. Anyone have any experiences using things like JB Weld gas tank or permatex gas tank repair? Can't justify the price of a replacement tank and getting it brazed is also p...

Re: Hi Everyone, new here
I'm in Ontario, where for a while they were actually talking about licencing ebikes. Which would have been interesting since most people on them either have an impaired charge or otherwise suspended licences. Already tried an ebay petcock that was listed as 84-85 but it was the too big size for late...

Hi Everyone, new here
Bought a spree on a whim at auction at the end of last year. Honestly didn't think I would win. Anyways it ran from day one without anything but a battery, some fuel and playing around with the carb to get it to idle nicely. Need to clean/check the petcock as it leaks out over a few days, and should...
