Re: Stiff fuel tap
Paul,
I clean and reapply each year and the tap remains free and doesn't leak.

Re: Stiff fuel tap
I use the same method. The Zed taps were always stiff. (ooerr missus)
Mine has been effective for about 4 years now, so it would seem it IS petrol and ethanol resistant

Why do I persist in debating with idiots ? I really should know better

Re: Stiff fuel tap
Mine was stiff, probably due to lack of use, tank would sometimes move when I used it, tried some wd40 on it and it has loosened up a tad ... still stiff but even Mrs H can use it .... more oooo er ?.

The red rubber grease has worked a treat...
