PLASTIC GAS TANKS

[the old trucker]

    I got this email today from Dave Olsen showing a new gas tank for the bombers. Here's what he had to say about them.
 
  Hi O.T., Took these pictures at Dan Shaver's today. Could you post them on a N.T. "New Topic" field so the guys can see the latest. They are to be held in place with a ratchet strap, some also use a marine fuel tank disconnect. Both are for quick tank removal.Tank is clear enough to see the fuel, gas gauge is not a firm requirement.The moulded handles make it sweet to handle.Gas cap is a mid nineties automotive screw in style, seems to work well with the one I saw in action.Gas filler hole needs to be cut larger. There is threaded brass fitting on top for the fuel pick-up. Looks like Dan is the dealer, pricing not set yet. Best to call him.  Thanks for your handy work, D.O.

  Looks like they should last a long time. Dave, do you know how many gallons or litres the tank holds ??

Nice looking tank, I think they make a big tank that goes inside the back of the bombardier as well. Steel tank 32 gallons I believe, I would like to see a plastic tank that can fit inside the back of a bombardier wide gauge. I think it would work great in the long distance rides plus it would free up a lot of the much needed space in the engine bay, just a thought of the day
