I bought a truck off Craigslist.. it had this tank mod done. The tank is cracked on the bottom, so I can’t test it.. and the tanks are a little expensive so I’m hesitant to try it on the new tank I have coming.

Upbasher... thanks for the tip on using the soldering iron to melt cracks in tank... I found the flat-bill tip works best... but I did have to add plastic to patch as it was wide spread cracks.. also it was around the sump/fuel filter at the bottom of the tank.. trying to get the $150 Craigslist truck up and running..

I was doing exactly that. Submersing it under water and pressurizing it (blowing into it). It is the only way to find the pinholes. it still took me 20 trips back and forth to the water tank... but I got it. ??
Drove the $150 Craigslist special today. First time driving a nitro truck in 15 years. I forgot all the little things that make for an enjoyable bash.
-Tank patch worked ??
- OS 30 it came with ran good ??
- forgot how much the half tank lean affects the tune ??
- I didn’t like the axial yeti XL wheels/tires
- broke the rear LST shock caps right off (after fixing the fronts) ?? ... but got a tank ran through.
