Hey guys.
My fuel tap (reserve tap) is leaking.
Looking to replace it.
Have swapped my 57 to my 59 to get me by but really need another.
Is this something I can buy new ?
Or a rebuild kit ?
I'm sure you've all seen one before.
But photos just in case
Cheers.
Tim.

So long as the thread on the tap itself and the inside of the nut are good, cos they galvanically corrode to bugger all threads, then you can buy a rebuild kit from Wolfsburg West.

Or buy a brand new tap from either WW or CIP1.

If you're going to repair it do some research beforehand because not all kits are perfect and may need some modifying to work spot on. [/i]
