Petrol leak

[Phoenix_TT]

Hi

My bro has a Pug 306, which has developed a petrol leak. Is there any 'stuff' that can temporarily stop this ? I've not seen the leak myself and I've been told is coming from directly underneath the tank, down the rear wheel arch. Interestingly I was also told that the leak only happen while at a angle, and not on a flat surface.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

get a box of matches and do him a favour..;-) It sounds like the filler neck leaking not the tank. There should be a rubber connector pipe from the filler tube to the tank, check the clips that hold it in place.
hope this helps

A lot of french cars have a plastic sorta bung near the top of the tank,this leaks through time,it will leak when on an angle or if you fill right to the top,if indeed the 306 has a plastic tank then you can get it plastic welded over,or ya can do what i do with the gt turbos,and thats chemical metal a rubber bung in.Might be worth a check.
