Here's someones idea for a replacement: Sorry I didn't give credit to the originator, lost the id. Regards WAW
Fuel Tank
I have a tank from a Ford Van E-350 - late 80's? (it was a 1 ton van) that is the same height, length as the stock PW tank, but goes the full width between the frame rails. I plan on using it since it fits perfectly in the stock holding straps. I just have to grind the square edge of the top straps so they fit nicely in the stamped ridges in the tank. The dimensions sound like the ones posted here. I planned on measuring it last night but forgot to. The filler hole has to be moved but that's not a problem. My brother wrecked his van and I grabbed the tank. I couldn't believe my luck when I tried it in the PW.
