[QUOTE="Speedtwin, post: 172338, member: 5012"] I tried the vitron replacements from the spares co, did not work very tight and still leaked, so changed to ss lever ball taps . Old ewarts are in the box of other stuff. Night before going on holiday my better half said there was a smell from the garage,nothing new there I thought. Went to check at midnight and found a full tank of av gas which was in the Comet had leaked to the floor from the aforementioned vitron replacement seals in the ewart taps. Balls, saving grace place had not exploded. Floor was cleaned to an exceptional finish, av gas certainly beats mr muscle as a floor cleaner. Moral of the story a bit like turning fifty and never trusting a fart. Never trust a fuel tap. Al [/QUOTE]
