gz gas tank needed

[Rookie Rider]

I found the paint bubbling in 2 spots on my tank, so i cut around the bubbles with a razor and dug in a little deeper and found the holes. Literally holes. So if anyone has a gas tank for sale im interested.

I saw where you responded to some posts in the classifieds section.
A replacement tank would be best. But if that doesn't work out, there are sealing agents you can use for those little holes.

Rust is a killer. This is why.

I put some steel puddy over the holes for now.

Well it seems like the steel putty was a bad idea. My bike wont start so i took off the fuel filter and found some shit in there, same color as the putty so im assuming its in the carb too.

Actually the filter should have caught it all.You should be able to change filters & be fine.

What would be a reason for not starting. Tried to push start it but no luck, sounds like its starving for gas.

Did you put a new filter on?As the old one has enough crap in it to stop fuel flow.If you already put a new filter on ,you may need to check the petcock & screens as they probably have a bunch of that stuff in them as well.
:cool:

Yeah, petcock is next on my list, havent done all that yet.
