Thanks, it doesn't have a primer bulb (pic). I just got a new savage from someone, and it leaks air... but do you mean the HPI bullet tank?If you have original tank with primer button this was found to leak air & possible tuning issues.
If funds allow bite the bullet & buy replacement tank!
Sorry for the wrong information but i mean that the tank is like new: nothing leaks, except that when i blow through the cable coming from the exhaust, no nitro gets pumped to the cable that is supposed to go to the engine. I think I don't have a rubber ring in the black plastic cap which blocks the air from leaking. Do you know the number of that part? Because I can't find it on the HPI exploded views
You can take that cap off the tank and fix it, also go to a local auto parts store and you can get an alcohol safe oring to fit the cap, make sure to take the tank to get the right measurements, if I am not mistaken there should be an O ring secured to the cap with a screw and plastic retainer... if you have an Oring already there and it is good you may be able to tighten the retainer screw down a bit to get a better seal, use care though it can break the plastic cap....
Thanks I've tried something relatable: I got a rubber band, put it in the place of where the O-ring is supposed to be, and when i push the black plastic cap down (the spring pressure isn't enough i guess), it pumps easily like new. So it just has to be the O-ring. Do you think this might help me?(pic)
