Fuel drain plug
Hi all,
Yesterday I decided to fix the leak around the fuel sender on my tank, this somehow turned into removing and cutting the tank apart, adding baffles
and making a little sump for the fuel pump to sit in :\
Now that it's all in bits and before I weld the sump on (mild steel tank) I thought it would be good to add a drain plug but am not sure what to
weld in there that wont leak?
I thought welding a a stud joiner (long nut) in and just putting a normal bolt in there with a copper washer on, would that leak?
Is there an obvious drain plug thing that I've missed?
Cheers!
Kev

Fuel tank drain plugs tend to sieze in the threads , brass plug may be better?
