[SEL] Novo - Kreem

[Paul Pavlinovich]

Kreem is a liquid plastic product used to repair fuel tanks - you empty 
the tank and let it dry, then shake out all the loose crud and pour in 
Kreem and turn the tank until all the internal surfaces are coated. Pour 
the Kreem back into its container (ready for next time). After the stuff 
dries you have a non-leaky tank. You might have to do it a couple of 
times for enough thickness. There are other products that do the same 
thing. I've used one and it seems to have worked ok. Soap is also useful 
for a temporary seal if you're at a rally - just rub it over the leaky 
seam or pinholes and they usually seal up.

Remember if you use a product like Kreem, first remove the fuel piping 
and cover the hole on the outside with tape otherwise you'll block up 
your pipe!

You can get Kreem and like products from motorcycle and vintage car 
restoration places. Some autoparts shops might also stock it.
