Went out on it again last night and you'd have thought I was running an open mouth carb. It was dripping, and I thought I'll have that out. Turns out it was the actual neck of the fuel tank itself. It's moving up and down when you put pressure on it and wasn't the cap at all. And don't get me started on the swarf from the seams of the tank... Only fit for the bin.

Fuel leaks make such an awful mess too. Also there is a massive fire risk...I'd be fuming!
