    Bodge?

    Rubber fuel line and some small jubilee clips?

    or...

        Did you sort it? When I had the lines off before on one of these we had it in a bag tied up high and that seemed to work, not sure why yours is still leaking?

          just put a bit of rubber fuel hose on with a bolt in one end and 2 jubilee clips. I think its due to daytime temperatures being reasonably warm and as a result some kind of expansion effect? i had a bottle on the end and in 24hrs it added about 1/2 ltr
