Du-Bro Fuel Tank

My 16oz Du-bro fuel tank (glo) developed a pin hole from being in contact with a protruding screw. How can I repair this pin hole?

Re: Du-Bro Fuel Tank

You probably could patch the tank but for $6.99 I'd just drive down to Hobby Extreme in Red Deer and pick up a new one.

Re: Du-Bro Fuel Tank

I've used a soldering iron with a flat blade to reflow the hole shut and had success BUT as mentioned above, if you have easy access to a new one that is the way to go.

Re: Du-Bro Fuel Tank

Thanks All;

I did get a new one, but not the same. Will have to modify slightly. But all good.
