Fuel tank on Toro mower
Original Message   Mar 14, 2005 4:33 pm
Hey guys, Today i was at work talking about mowers,and a buddy of mine has a Toro 21 inch walkbehind he has had for 17 yrs. The fuel tank is leaking on it, he said its made of plastic and its a kawasaki engine. He said he has looked everywhere for one he can't find one for it anyone know anywhere he might look? The mower cuts and runs great and he don't want to get rid of it but he said his garage is killing him from the gas smell. I said just drain the gas but I guess that would get on the nerves after a while. thanks Mike

that fuel tank new runs  $46.00  up here in minnesota.   depending  exactly where the crack is you can  "weld" it.  we have done this in our shop.  use a 1/2  wide soldering iron.  get good and hot  500 degrees.  the start closing the seams

The Suzuki engine  has a metal blower case and has a fuel tank connected to the deck, (plastic or metal depending on age of mower).  The Kawisaki engine has a plastic fuel tank attached to the engine ( yellow fuel cap) most of the time.

Good Luck,

Friiy

PS. if you know a aircraft mechanic working for the airlines ask him if he has any  "B 1/2" sealant.   It works really good on fuel tanks.
