    Sir, I just had to remove the broken plastic piece from my Triumph Fuel assy plate. Your "Hot Screwdriver" method was an absolutely perfect solution to my broken fitting issue. Thank You.

    Good video. Just gone through the same procedure (Daytona 955i). Success.
    Tip---Use a 10mm bladed screwdriver preferably with a hex moulding at the base of the screwdriver handle for a ring spanner.
    You don't need to get the blade red hot, just hot enough, plunge the blade until it stops. Practise the heat on the broken part that fell off.
    It's not difficult at all.

    Great, informative video, thanks for posting. Just for info, the replacement female connectors in stainless are available from RS Components for those in the UK. You'll need some PTFE tape around the threads.

    Thanks for the great tip. My plastic piece was stuck tight enough that the screwdriver, even when cooled down, started to mangle the plastic fitting. I ended up heating an Allen wrench to get more contact points, and used the same technique. It worked like a champ.
    I am still getting a leak where the new fitting screws into the tank. I used plumbers tape that bunched up a little. That could be a problem. Also, does anyone know how tight this fitting should be screwed in? I may not have tightened it enough but am also fearful of over tightening.

    I know this video is old but my tiger is having the same problem! I have ordered the new parts. Did you just use teflon tape on the threads?

    That little vacuum that shows there on the video pointing at The area you were working on should there be a hose on that and if so where will it be run to ?

    • @mrwhiteinca
      @mrwhiteinca  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      that's a breather hose, i don't think there are any vacuum lines on that bike (or any bike??)

    • @simonelomax7465
      @simonelomax7465 ปีที่แล้ว

      Arthur98555, I believe that you’re referring to the pressure regulator - it ought to have a hose on it going to the air box, I believe, not to the inlet/throttle bodies anywhere as it doesn’t require a vacuum.

    Good morning mate. watching your video it is extremely easy to remove the fuel line connector. But I have a small big problem. The start of the thread has broken, I have tried to take out as you indicated and it is impossible for me to remove it, you have some other idea, thank you very much

  • @julieoliver8170
    @julieoliver8170 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just did mine. Tank is easy to get off. So is the air box. Be careful with the air box. One screw underneath center of the box. They , make metal aftermarket tank connections. Hey male and fe,al . Use a silicone seal on the tank side at the screw in part.

    Should I order two and replace both the top and the bottom one?

    • @mrwhiteinca
      @mrwhiteinca  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      sorry for late reply man, yes, definitely do them both at the same time since they both suffer from the same condition.

    I wouldn't use a pencil to prevent it from leaking gas.. As it's not a leaded operated vehicle 😛
