[Public-List] Gas tank

[Mike Lehman]

Stephen

 

For your vintage boat this was the standard tank and location. You will need to remove the exhaust system (especially if it is the verticle copper muffler - also originial). The original tanks (I cannont imagine that your is still the original) were made of steel and have (or should have) rusted through by now.
