Pop it out, blank it off (if you need to keep driving it araound) and slop some tank repair around in it.... Save mucho ££££

Then pop it back in and happy days

Been blanked off for a year Si. It did not want to pop out. It was a bastard to get out. Has a holey in it.

I've just done this but got mine repaired and pressure tested (not too many spares stockists in Coffs Harbour) not a nice job, trust me drop both engine mounts it's worth it. You are going to have to get it out, wether you repair or replace it, so good luck, easier with 2 one pushing from underneath, the other jiggly from on top, swearing helps ! :rolleyes:

Mine were taken out and POR'd I think in 2002, but I still get the odd whiff and worry about them. I'll have alloy ones made next time I think.
