As I was removing my fuel tank I broke off the barb where one of the fuel lines attaches to the tank. Its broken clear back to the weld so I have nothing to which to attach the fuel line.
The other barb on this tank appears to have been replaced by a bolt-in/on unit, which is much more sturdy than the barb that I broke. I'm assuming that this is the solution for the barb that I broke.
Can anyone tell me where to get one of these bolt-on barbs and tell me anything I need to now about fixing this problem (I've searched around the forum and internet and I can't find any info about any of this)? Or, if I need to buy a new tank, please break the bad news to me gently (and let me know if you have a tank for sale). Thanks much!
