Hi All
My B7100HST has started leaking fuel out of the plastic tank, somewhere? I think the seam. Is this a commom problem? Tractor Brought new in 95 has less than 400 Hr.s
Also where's the best place to shop for Tires on line?
Hmmm, maybe that's a common problem for the B7100. My 1995 had about 300 hours and was about 3 years old when that happened. It developed a very small crack in the bottom under (well, actually right over) one of the metal bands holding the tank on. Since my dealer did not have a tank in stock (about $80 if I remember right), I patched it with PC-7 epoxy paste (of course I had to drain it, remove it completely, clean and dry it first, etc.). It held for a year and about another 100 hours and had just started to leak again when I traded it for the B2710. I told the salesman about it before the deal, and he seemed completely unconcerned, so I don't know just how they fixed it.
I have a early 80's B7100 with the original fuel tank. No leaks yet. The plastic has clouded over the years so that you have to take the cap off to see the fuel level but no leaks.
