I have another handle/fuel tank for my 2100. The one on the saw leaks fuel on the seam at the back end. The other handle is solid and leak proof on the fuel end but has lost seal on the chain oil end as seen by the photos. My plan is to find a good tig welder and open/ V groove the seam with a dremel or other such tool on the advice of the welder after he looks at the tank. It's the last 3-4" of the seam that has let loose. I feel this can be repaired. I clamped it in a vice and gently put pressure on it and the seam closes up nicely. Will have to find a plug to protect the oil line fitting threads for sure.

Will be interesting to see how this goes. No time frame but will post how it goes. Will be a while probably.
