yeah, i drove saga before, but using NA tank...haisehhh...not good feel mah.
and of coz, UK spec tank is RARE..hehehe u can ask for welding, but using brass or alloy oxy-acytelene welding (gas welding). same brass/alloy welding for air-cond system.u cannot use normal welding...ok small leaking is driveable, but with scared feeling loh...how if your tank catch fire? OMG...repair fast lor |

yes, tank can burn, but may not exploded due to no pressure inside(do not close tank inlet/outlet) but prevention action is always good.
for the patah screw, usually mech always have thier way to fix it...dont worry. This post has been edited by joefbi: Sep 22 2011, 10:04 AM |
