  • Hi All,
    Welcome back to the channel. Todays video is about the Vevor Portable Diesel tank. I was really looking forward to this purchase. Unfortunately, it turned into a bit of a struggle with the company. If you buy one, I hope your experience is better. Thanks for checking out the video!

    Take that metal tab off, then clean it and the mating surface on the tank with brake cleaner spray, then put Permatex "right stuff" gasket maker on it and quickly reassemble while caulk is wet, then let dry. It won't leak anymore.

      Thanks for the tip. I fixed it in a very similar way as you suggested. It has been working well, no leaks. I appreciate you checking out the video. Take care!🇺🇸🚜

    Great honest review Mike. I know how frustrating it can be when little problems pop up with something brand new like that. I bought a 20 gal tank with a manual crank style pump a few years back. I was good for about a year and pump started leaking. Hope you can resolve the issues and get some good use out of it. Thanks for sharing. Have a good weekend.

    I've had one for a couple of years with only one issue. Where the fuel hose attaches to the filter assembly, the movement of the hose would like to reverse the threading just enough to cause a drip leak. I remedied the issue by installing a 360-degree swivel fitting.

    As someone in aviation industry, I would recommend P/S 890 B pro-seal as the sealant. Which is designed specifically for jet fuel/diesel tank sealant. It's a little bit pricy 2 part sealant but it'll definitely last forever.

      True ~ no one is safe from anyone who wants to find them. Thinking about it, I believe hiding a plate number or other identifying item is mostly done in TV programs or news reporting. And again, we're never safe from anyone.

    Is the leak up through the Threads or around the outside between the Brass and the Plastic ??
