Escondido Plastic Gas Tank Repair.
CALL 562-920-1871
Escondido Plastic Gas Tank Repair. Due to cost savings and weight reduction, auto manufacturers have been using plastic (polyurethane) gas tanks for their vehicles. However, these tanks are susceptible to damage, vandalism, and human error. Orozco’s Auto Service has been repairing metal gas tanks for years and has now developed a specialized system for repairing plastic gas tanks as well.
Recent research indicates that 98 percent of all vehicles in Europe are outfitted with plastic gas tanks, and 75 percent of all vehicles in the United States have plastic tanks as well.
To begin the repair process, Orozco’s Auto Service thoroughly evaluates the gas tank to assess the damage. If the damage is along a seam, they may not be able to repair it, but if it is a cut, gouge, or drill hole, they can help. The tank is then pressure washed to remove any dirt and debris, and chemically cleaned to ensure that all traces of oils and fuel are removed. This process is repeated as necessary to ensure that the tank is completely clean.
After the tank is cleaned, Orozco’s Auto Service uses their patented system to repair any damage. A pressure test is then performed to ensure that the tank is safe to use. Finally, the tank can be primed and painted to match the color of the vehicle or even offer custom colors.
If you are within the towable area of Orozco’s Auto Service in Bellflower, California, they can take care of the repair process on site. If you are outside of their area, the gas tank must be completely dry of any gasoline, boxed up, and shipped to them for repairs. UPS ground is recommended as the most reliable shipping option.
In summary, Orozco’s Auto Service offers specialized plastic gas tank repair services that include a thorough evaluation, cleaning, and repair of the tank, followed by a pressure test and painting. They are capable of repairing most types of damages, even drill holes caused by gas thieves. Their services are available for customers both within and outside of their area.
If you’re within a towable distance, bring your vehicle to Orozco’s Auto Service for repair. If you’re outside of our area simply ship your clean empty gas tank to us for repairs.
