the 2 fittings ( outlet to carby and return ) on my petrol tank ( escort van mk2) Kit car, are loose and leaking around the "flange" where they enter the tank. Previous owner bodged a repair by smothering in epoxy, but this is naff, and I need to sort it better. How exactly are these 2 pipes meant to be attached and leakproof to the tank? I cant seem to figure how the union is meant to be leakproof?? Is there any reason why I couldnt just get 'em welded around the base where they enter the tank? - cant see any future need to remove them? any helpappreciated. pictures available if helps:-)
