i had to pull the oil tank out of my 914 to address a leak, and one of the mounting studs on the tank broke when i went to remove the nut. it broke about a 1/4" off of the tank.
quick google search last night didn't yield any good intel, what am i looking at to replace that stud?... |

Thats a tricky spot for sure.. that stud is brazed with a flange from the inside..That will be a tricky repair. A couple ways to go about it.. I think the best way would be to drill and tap then insert a stud and weld or brake in place. That will ensure proper centering.
