My 1971 Broncco TX-1L has been sitting for 30 years.With a little heat, removed gas cap,(Fantic motors gas cap is good,but neck a little ruff,not sure what route to go.Repair or replace.Powdering soon ?!!
Can you tell how the neck is attached? Is it molded as part of the tank, of a separate piece soldered in?
That tank looks nice. I would be very tempted to find another neck to solder or weld onto the opening.
It is part of the tank.I have been looking for the correct size replacement neck,so that I can use the original cap.Cutting it out and welding in a new neck is what I was thinking.Looking for a filler neck?
Not sure about the threads, but I took the "neck" from a can of mineral spirits and soldered it onto an old tank.
That was a long time ago, but you might be surprised what that cap will screw onto. Baby bottle, maybe?
