Posted: Sat Jan 26, 2008 21:25 Post subject: Fuel Tank Leak, looking for a new tank |
|
|
Hello,
I'm not sure if this as been posted, I am new, so I apologize if it has.
Recently, a leak was found in the diesel fuel tank of my 3.1 Diesel 1993 [K] Isuzu Trooper 3dr SWB.
I have found one or two stockists, both quoting over £250.
Cash is a bit low at the moment due to Christmas & floods, and at the moment I cannot afford that.
I am looking for a cheaper tank, reasonable quickly. I live in the middle of nowhere, and without a car, you are stuck.
Does anyone have any links to cheaper sites, or know where I can get one?
I live 15 miles outside Carlisle, and don't really want to travel any further than 3 miles away.
Thanks,
Peter |

It might be worth trying www.a14x4.com as they will ship items out... _________________ Isuzu Rodeo Denver Max LE | 265/65R18 BF Goodrich AT LTM No.60

Thank you all for the links.
I managed to track someone down from the local paper who is selling the whole vehicle for £50!
The engines blown, but it should provide me with some spares.
Thanks,
