Dexta diesel tank

Post by Scoobynorm »

Hi, restoring dexta at the moment, when refitting diesel tank is there any need to place pad between the tank and where it bolts on with the 3 bolts ( like the way the radiator is done with the 2 pads)

Yes, they should be 3/16" thick, otherwise the dash won't fit properly.

These rubbers aren't available, your idea would be fine.
