Quick fix for a cracked float bowl

Does anyone know any temporary fixes for a cracked plastic float bowl? Ive tried silicon but its not stopped the petrol leaking. Im losing petrol fast as my ped is gravity fed with no cut off :/

 

i know a quick fix buy a new once

 

Im just after a temporary fix till i order a new one

 

Plastic weld any car shop should have it

 

cheers mate, ill give it a go. Wont it work if i use loads of silicon? Or does petrol break down silicon?

 

Yeah silicon and petrol are no good together mate. It can also block your jets if you're not careful

 

JB weld.... lots of it

 

the silicon is on the outside of the carb so the jets should be fine

 

Alls me and jack done with mine was heat an old flat head screw driver up on a blow torch til it was cherry red and melt it back together use a deodorant lid or something similar if needed!

 

haha that will be a last resort for me if all else fails haha

 

Just plastic welding really! worked for me for around a 2 weeks! had screwed the drain plug in to much on my carb by accident and just cleaned it out with fairy liquid and melted it good as new!

 

Haha dont think id trust myself with a lighter id probably melt the whole thing-.-
