Hey guys, long time no speak, been extremely busy with trying to get a new job and a few other things, but I have come to need a new fuel tank for dad's SA the liner that was put in it the first time ~5 years ago has deteriorated and now its clogging up fuel lines and i cant run it, we took it back to the shop that did it and they said they boiled it and couldnt get it out and had "never seen anything that looks like that" when you can clearly tell its the old liner coming apart. soooo anyone have a good tank they wanna sell?

nice work josh. yeah i like the carbed engines, mine started right up like that. all the FI ones i've seen they had to turn several revolutions before they would start. i figure it's the whole fuel pump don't run til it senses oil pressure.
