Is this gasoline resistant? Can it be used on a motorcycle gas tank?

My guess is that it is gasoline resistant after the paint dries. I painted a tractor tank that holds gasoline. When filling the tank I do spill some often and do not notice any problem with that affecting the paint.

yes; it can be used in motorcycle and scooter engines; drain existing oil, and remove oil filter first. refill will the synthetic and you're good to go!

I would NOT dispense gasoline with one. If the seals don't melt the plastic body of the valve will. Don't try it.

This should have no problem as I would think Gasoline would be harsher on this stuff than bio-diesel. Just my opinion though. I put it in an old 1932 gas tank for a buddy and this stuff made it like new. Manufacturer should have a FAQ on their site.

It transfers gasoline just fine. I emptied the gas tank on my scooter several times while fixing it with no problem.

No this pump is not designed for gasoline. It may damage the pump and/or cause an explosion.

I do not think, it has been very useful in the work that I use, the temperatira is rather high, but the durability of the flame depends on the gas tank and this is small.

I primarily use this on Triumph motorcycle cases and it is the best Permatex (or any) product for the job. I've also used it on rubber pipes to metal banjos and it worked well there too. I suspect that it would work well in your situation but I have not used it on plastic and there are so many kinds of plastic that I would test it first. Personally, on threads where gas or oil is involved, I use the yellow Teflon tape -- it seals gasoline so diesel should be no problem.

You should have no problem I use it on a carbureted motorcycle and it works fine

No sure but I can't figure out why you would care? You fill your tank with gasoline and your crank case with oil both flammable..I tried a sealant from Walmart with no luck. Red tek sealed instantly and the ac is colder than it's ever been.

I don't believe its designed for gas as it would probably damage the impeller. Also gas is flammable and dissolves oils. Diesel is an oil which lubricates the pump.

It appears to be a standard vinyl tube, and I use it for a fountain I built. Not sure if it is suited for gasoline. I have a gasoline syphon to empty mowers, and I am sure that is designed for gasoline. Sorry.

i would not use it for fuel. mainly because you will be pumping fumes out and I consider that a fire/explosion hazard.

NO NO NO NO NO!!!! If your still with us and reading this. DO NOT USE THIS FOR ANYTHING BUT WATER!!!! If this pump is exposed to gasoline vapors you will not be with us. This motor has brushes and creates exposed arcs or sparking. If you need to pump gasoline, acquire a pump especially designed for that purpose. Again: DO NOT USE THIS FOR GASOLINE!!!!!

yes, absolutely! this is a link to a Utube video showing it being done. I sealed up a motorcycle gas tank as well. just make sure the interior is clean and dry when you start. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUy-3ujovXo

I don't think so. I used it on a gas tank on my motorcycle and it only took off the surface rust but not the think stuff. I soaked it for two days but no luck. Hope this helps you.

I am not certain if this is ethanol resistant, but the manufacturer should be able to tell you. Amazon could give you their contact details.
