Any other tank fit?

[Ron B]

Tired of trying to get the rust out. have had it out twice and washed it ,but still getting powder rust out stopping my lines up. Does anyone know of another vehicle that works ?

I also was curious about this I have a 60 that I could steal one from, any idea if it will fit with some work?

I seem to recall someone mentioning a S10 tank worked..........

I've got a big metal box (rectangular- looks like a fuel cell) under my cruiser. I suppose you can make just about anything work.

However, might just be cheaper and easer to buy a large box of replaceable fuel filters. I had those cheap-o glass inline filter on my FJ60, you could see the debris and could even wash the plastic filter under tap water. Worked great for the 2 years I owned it.

The s10 tank fits the 40 and I have a butt load of clear filters. Its stopping my lines up before it gets to the filter. The baffles in the tank keep me from cleaning it good.

Try taking it to a gas tank/radiator shop and having them go through it.

What he said - have them boil and line it. I had that done and I'm rollin' again!

Radiator shop and clear pre-filters.

Keep the fuel flowing and eventually you will will catch all the rust.

Keep the tank full and put some gas drier or heet in there to keep water out...

With enough work, anything will fit. To me, the biggest limitation on the pig is depth. Before I did the tank above, I was going to use a Suburban tank... but the whole ~12" depth on the tank hung it too low below the frame rails.

Yeah I have a burb tank and probably wont use it for the same reason. some extra gallons would be nice, but wow that thing is too tall, even if I did a body lift.
