    What’s the best resource for finding a new infloor gas tank?

    Can’t come up with anything online for an Inca 21 gallon tank model f02181. Space is approx 66″x22″x”7″, and can’t find anything that would fit.

    If this was your tank, would you be concerned about this fix? Did er myself and guarantee she’s solid and has been tested true, but when in Rome they say….. It’s the fuel pickup, don’t ask, it’s a long story chased

    As long as gas doesn’t slosh around and get out you should be good to go. I’m not riding with you lol but it should be good.

    I’d keep a fire extinguisher handy…

    Is the tank solid? May Just need to find a new pickup flange.

    That part of the tank was warped a bit, so 2 rubber gaskets, tin top secured with aviation grade gasket sealant.

    Scam it is though, boat brochure says 22gallon tank, actual tank capacity 20.86 gallons? How the duece does that work? Fuel line ain’t that big!!

    With a fix like that, I kinda feel obligated to ask how it happened. I would have no issues running it that way if it seals up good. You need a fire extinguisher on-board anyways. Sometimes the cheap fixes are the strongest.

    All signs had lead to restricted fuel, and to the pickup itself. Couldn’t get the fitting off. It was on summer vacation, I left earlier with the young ones, FW and our oldest was coming up for the weekend. Oldest is in those teen years where fishing doesn’t do much but boating around and tubing does. There was no way I wasn’t gonna have a boat for her that weekend so I did what I had to do. Cut that biotch out and fix the problem.

    Message left with Inca.
