Welcome to the board.

According to Mazdatrix's site, they look like the same part between coupes and convertible.

I believe 86-88 tanks are different than 89-91 tanks, and they are a pain to find. Mine was very nasty(parked for 4 years before I picked it up) and is currently at a tank repair shop because I can't find any local 😑😑

S4 and S5 tanks are different part numbers. 88 or earlier FC tanks should work. If your in FL there's a guy parting a 88 FC with a good tank in Orlando.

Thank u to those that responded to my inquires, drove to penn and picked up a used tank, this morning . Will now see if I can get everything back together. Once tank is installed then I will try and blow out fuel lines , will follow recommended start up procedures read from this site. Been setting 7 years��

Thank u, located a correct tank in penn , have picked up and am now going through the process of cleaning inside tank with “Evaporust” . Tank was in good condition except for mouse home, so decided to clean whole inside . Once I figure how to post pics, will do so. Best
