Fuel Leak
| Part Number unknown |
Cost £70 |
This problem occurred the day I
bought the car. Which was very annoying as I did check the fuel tank
when viewing the car.

When I got the car it had about a
3rd of a tank of fuel. On the way home I filled it completely up, when
I got the car home & parked up I noticed it was leaking fuel from
around the sender unit. The car was parked on a slight incline, so I
turned the car around so the front was point up hill & this stopped
the leak. While I was looking at the leak I noticed that the contacts
on the sender were very corroded & while I was pushing the
wires aside they snapped off.
I did cheat (wimp out) on this one & took it to a local MG
specialist (hence the price)
I had a new Sender unit & lock ring & seal fitted, the
parts were £20 the rest was labour. |
