I know this has been talked about before and lots of people say that the gsl-se gas tank has baffles in it and the 12a does not but why does mazdatrix show the same part number for all 84-85?

the 12A tanks also have a return line. I know it is possible to put a S3 tank into an S2, but not sure about other way around.

wut he said. my 12a 85 tank did not have baffles. mazdatrix only sells the se tanks , they fit both cars, if you can get the old hose stretched over teh 3/8 instead of the 5/16 hose.
