'03 gas tank for sale

I have a spare tank from my green 2003 KLR for sale. The paint and graphics are generally in very good condition BUT it weeps from a leak in the seam in the lower left. I never noticed it dripping or saw anything on the garage floor; my mechanic spotted some residue that the skid plate had captured. We sanded off a small patch of paint and found some tiny pinholes. I m quite certain that the tank is salvageable and usable. I bought some Caswell Gas Tank Sealer but never got around to trying it, and will include it with the sale. You ll need a new cap and petcock, however, as I used the originals on another tank I bought.

 

Asking $75 for the tank and sealer (the sealer alone was $50), and buyer pays shipping.

 

Detailed photos available. Please contact me offline if interested at delsuhr@....

 

Thanks,

I experienced the same 'leak' with a 99 KLR250; a spot weld rusted through.Sanded the spot, used a coating of JB QUICK weld, allowed to dry. Applied a second coat to a slight larger area, with positive results.It was holding good 3 years later, and I am sure the new owner of 4 years is having the same results.m1.
