Dave K Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 A quick question for all the Learned sages on the forum. My 1994 110 Station Wagon is in need of a new Fuel tank. So, where is the best place to source one from? (& No, I don't want a certain brand!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffR Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 To be honest, I have the unmentionable brand fitted to my 110 V8 and I hate to say it, but it does the job. Was bought as an emergency (10 gallons of unleaded dribbling down the drive tends to upset some people) 3 years ago and other than giving it a couple of coats of enamel, no real problems.

Dave K Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 I'm actually grateful for a reply. Thought I might've caught something! Jeff, I know the feeling. Touring Europe on the "half a tank" principle, tended to shred the nerves. Then the Alternator packed in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffR Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Not long (the following day) after I fitted the bugger I found out the hard way that the fuel sender was also being very optimistic - we stopped dead with half a tank of petrol in a V8, about an hours worth of bad language later the nice AA man brought me some..... Was not a happy bunny, but honest, it's been no problem, onlt thing that didn't fit was the bloody cradle it came with, so re-used the one of the old tank.

Dave K Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 That's main reason for changing it. When I bought the vehicle, the tank had been changed, & they fitted the wrong return pipe. This caused no end of problems over the years. The mount for the sender is cream-crackered because the sender has been removed too many times.
