--- Quote from: "Steel" ---If it's a Series fuel tank, then as far as I am aware you are not able to buy a new one.  The Series fuel tank replacements for 88-inch vehicles appear to be 90 fuel tanks!  :shock:

does the 90 tank fit a series???

ukmudmaster:
A 90 tank is different to series tank. Best bet is a new tank, £50, safer as well,

Series tanks not available new?????
The 90 style replacement tank for Series vehicles was introduced many years ago as it was simply a better design of tank. Instead of having lots of welded seams it is made up in just two sections which are then joined together, apparantly this design is easier to make and is more reliable.

I repaired a Series tank about 20-years ago but would never do it again. They are so cheap to buy new that replacement is a far better, quicker and more perminant solution.

well, heres some photos of the tank
i think i'll buy a new one. purely cos i'm lazy and i know any repair is only temporary, so i'll have to buy a new tank eventually.

and as my brother pointed out, i only need to lose 1 full tank of diesel due to a split tank to make me regret trying to repair it.
