ebinmaine 80,188 #3 Posted June 8 I was going to question where you got your grommet and valve because I've had problems with the cheap ones. What does the picture above show? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I may be able to find one reasonable at the show in 3 weeks. Never cared for plastic welding. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like he has a crack in the molded seam of the tank right below the bung hole.. no pun intended You can see some light shining through. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
