Both my wing tanks leaked. As I later learned both were welded construction, ternplate i believe, both not repairable. I sent them to John Wright initially who told me the bad news. He called Vernon Gregory, who's business is used Ercoupe parts and between the two professionals, I got completely rebuilt tanks. It was a totally good experience, knowing I now have 100% reliable rebuilt parts. Send them to John Wright. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Al Demarzo" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 5:15:40 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [ercoupe-tech] Leaking Gas tank
If you can't handle something like that yourself, best thing is to send it to a shop for repair. Try to score John Wright's phone number and get a great job at a great price if they can handle it.
