Gas leak

[cubs4lifeofme]

Leaking around the valve. Shut it off and leaks worse.

is this what I need ?

I got one from CC Specialties for my 782 plastic tank. My local Kohler guy had it too. As a short-term temporary measure, I used some PCV grommet. You need to determine if yours is leaking through the shut-off, or around it. Replace the bushing with the right item either way.

Will the valve just pull rite down and out ?

 

[jkoenig]

Yes, but you have to pull like really want it to come out. Maybe use a nail puller? My bushing broke on the way out, so that required tank removal, and considerable shaking.

I don't think I like these. Not much ceiling surface

That just doesn't seam well engineered, but I've never had one leak. I have a 2284 that will leak from the crossover if I fill it completely. I've wallered around on the floor looking for the solution and thus far the solution is 3/4 tank of fuel!

Called dealer . They have aftermarket ones for 2$ but my local guy has them for 5.13 so he got my 5.13.

hard to believe but I put it back together and added fuel then looked in and saw the remainder of the old grommet. Amazingly I was able to bend wire down and hook it 1st try.
