During the summer I took my B over to Wales to see its former owner. He was happy she was in good shape and being used but I did mention to him the fuel smell and that I should get round to looking into it. He then told me it had never smelled until his mechanic had changed the fuel pump and snapped several of the studs. I whipped off the cover and he's not wrong:
There's three of them like that and I'm sure that's not helping matters. This isn't something I've any experience of, is it fixable or should I be looking at a replacement fuel tank? I'm aware than even fixing this and replacing the seals may not solve the smell but it looks like an avenue to explore over the winter.
