Hi lads

slingshot 1100 fuel tap is pissing fuel through the tap face, never used a repair kit and wondered if anyone has success with one sourced from a particular seller etc? Heard mixed reviews about if they even work

Cheers

Depends what model slingshot whether you can get a tap or not just looked and repair kits are now £25:(

Yeah just had a look, 1100n didn't see a tap for it, if it was only £50 for tap I would of bought at £25 repair kit ,

I rebuilt my 1100M tap with a Tourmax kit from Eblag which was about 16 quid and had everything in it - even new bolts and a spring for the diaphragm.

The seal that the knob cylinder fits into - like a rubberised washer that fits in the main tap body the other side of the diaphragm - is an interference fit and a right twat to get out.  I used an engineer's pick, but I have heard of quite a few people cracking the tap housing in the process.  A new one from Suzuki is 160 sheets!
