24 fuel tank.

Post by John Warren » Sat Dec 26, 2020 3:27 pm

Challenges gettingnew tanks is real. Hopefullysomeone will take the reins and starte making new ones again. Danny Lorenzi was one recently in need of a new tank. One of our clubmembers, David Cuddy, had a 26,27 tank that he installed in Danny's truck. He then was able to repair Danny's tank and did get it re-installed. Danny likes the installed 26-27 tank so much that he wants to keep it and now will have extra fuel on long tours. It turned out prettygood. Just sharing.

In his case, since the installation isn't standard, he could use any tank. He probably could find a new modern tank that holds 20+ gallons and sell the T tank to a member who really needs it.

That's a good idea, however, I am sad that it is a 26-27 tank, because they haven't been making them new and a good one is hard to find. I would rather see that tank installed in a 26-27.
