And be careful of the OEM replacements, the only two available for mine (18 gal. & 24 gal.) won't fit without putting a 1 1/2" shim for the fuel nozzle and on the 24 gallon one I'll also have to cut the backsplash curb.
I only found this out from measuring both ends of the tanks and their mounting locations and cutting a piece of plywood to shove up in place.

I removed and cleaned my tanks just over 1 year ago when I was replacing the transom and repowering and re-wiring (preparing for the first splash). I did not remove the pick up tubes but I did inspect the inside of the tanks and they looked good. The tags on the tanks listed a capacity of 20 gal. I am not planning on replacing them at this time.

If I'm not mistaken the only difference in the 17 (18) gal. and the (19) 20 gal. is the overall length.

Still, sorry for not making myself clear.
As for MJ and the 17 or 20 gal tanks, there is a good likelyhood the only difference in the original type was the length of the tanks.
The OEM***8217;s (at least for my ***8220;75) are as I stated.
Jetty Rocker would be better off to fix his, get jason***8217;s or be prepared for a bunch of crap if replacing with the only two types available new, being the 18 or 24. Or do the right thing and have them custom made for $400 each and up.
I know, I just replaced the port tank on mine.
