Title: FIBREGLASS TANK
Post by: Chrisf1 on 10.02. 2009 18:10

Hi again everyone can I please ask for advice on the use of modern petrol in fibreglass tanks. I am sure I have heard that it rots them and I am looking at a second tank for mine which is fibreglass any knowledgeable information on this subject welcome thanks Chris

I have had excellent results using caswell epoxy tank liner.  I've rescued tanks that were gumming up carbs with good success.  One caveat: IME, fiberglass tanks require twice as much liner material for full coverage, I am guessing because of the roughness of the inside.
