Lawnmower Gas Tank Help

Strype · Apr 8, 2007

Okay I got an old Murray Riding Lawnmower (lawn tractor for the Southernese Impared) I'm trying to fix for my mom. The gas tank was cracked. So I had to take a hacksaw just to get it out. Yay for teh hacksaw

Soooo... What can I use for a gas tank. I need something I can hook a fuel line up to and not worry about my mom driving it and it blowing up on her

I'm thinking a closed system overflow tank for a radiator...

Any suggestions welcomed

PS: Happy Easter!!!

I am sure that a small engine repair shop would have a suitable replacement.

If you had a honda, you wouldn't be having any issues.

Just get a tank like you would use with a small outboard motor.

That's what I was thinking. The new lawnmowers just have their tanks zip tied in . My new Troy Built has a zip tied gas tank.

+1. My friends call me the zip tie king

gunmetal5.0 · Apr 9, 2007

That makes it almost 3 percent zip ties.

Strype:
I'd like to see the finished product for two reasons.
1. I'll know who to call, should I ever need a fuel tank replaced on a lawnmower.
2. Comedic purposes.
