right i attempted to do a spot of electrolysis on my bandit tank

all was going well until about 4 hours after starting, i sprung a leak from where i had duct tapped the fuel tap "hole"

if i leave the fuel tap attached to the tank am i likely to wreck/ damage it using electrolysis?

or for anyone else that has done their tank how did you plug your holes?

fanks!

Yep and it would double-up nicely as an electrode holder.

What about for tanks where the fuel taps are other than round?

Drill 2 holes in a bit of plate to blank it off and use cornflakes packet for a gasket.
