you can always do it yourself or dismantle the fuel tank. it is an easy job to do and no fire possibility...

And if you dismantle that, it's a good opportunity to repair your rust problems there and to put some Blackson on

trouble is i cant get this bolt undone anyways cos its rusted solid.. if i had an angle grinder i could just empty the tank and then do it..

I'd take the tank out...give yourself some space to play with.

While its out, give it a coat of underseal or similar, as they rust on the top = big bill.

cheers
