Also, be careful when buying a plastic tank as there are older versions that use a plastic that will allow gas vapors to escape, and the newer type that stand up to the gas better and reduce or eliminate the vapors from bleeding through....if you buy from a surplus store, you'll probably get the older stuff....that will require ventilation of the tank compartment..
Thanks for the information. That's good to know.

Really the only reason I looked at Moeller is because they were one of the first companies that I stumbled on when doing my research. I think there is another thread in this forum regarding fuel tank replacement that has links to Moeller as well.

I am very receptive to recommendations or opinions on other materials and manufacturers, experiences others have had.

Thanks again for the helpful information.

Chris
