In Response To: Re: Poly Tank Manufacturer? (Paul Haggett)

I was on the phone with one of the Ocean link guys yesterday looking for dimensions for possible tanks on my B25 and the guy was acting like ethanol was manna(sp?) from heaven, I could hear him licking his chops druelling over all the money he was going to make replacing tanks over this.......

Enough on greed.

He also mentioned that he'd only guarantee his tanks for 10% ethanol because there could be some issues with the aluminum tank fittings over 10% levels (Per the mfg.). He stated the tanks were good for any level, but the aluminum fittings were suspect for higher levels. I asked him if he had bronze or stainless fittings available and he said that he'd look into it. He also mentioned that the fittings were easily replaceable so retrofitting later on is a possibility.
