Hawk 250 2nd gas leak for tank on petcock stem.
Hi! All,
this is the 2nd gas leak on my Hawk, this is on a new tank I got as warranty replacement on my Hawk. Fixed the original tank with steelstik puddy that lasted 1.5 years. Started leaking again last year, just threw on spare new tank I had on.........*sight* suppose I'll steelstik puddy this too? ![]()

Can you tell where the leak is coming from? Is there a crack in the metal or just a bad weld? If you know somebody with the skill, instead of steel stick/jb weld you could try to clean and evacuate the tank and then have it brazed or soldered over. It will be a much better repair than either epoxy.
