OK, as some of you know I just today picked up another 240Z. Now i have been outa the loop here for the last few years now. But, dose anyone make a new aftermarket fuel tank? I know the headaches that go with these stock tanks and the crap that gets in the fuel from them. So rather then fight it I would rather replace it now.

I have thought fuel cell. But I would much rather keep this one stock. Well, near stock anyway......

I had my tank redone they cleaned and sealed it and it looked pretty good. I then sprayed the outside with POR 15 and it looks like brand new cost about for them to do the shop work $200

If you're willing to shell out the cash for a fuel cell, why not just take the tank somewhere and have it professionally cleaned? It's actually a bit more straigtforward than cleaning an EFI fuel tank.

*James had basically the same thought and typed it faster than I.

Well, a fuel cell would cost me under 100 - none. We have a hot rod shop and do have a few just sitting around. For the cell it's more a matter of room and the loss of the spare tire. I thank you all on the clean and seal. I do know it can be done and odds are I could get it done myself. I just didnt know if anyone had made an ABS plastic repro tank or even a new metal one.

I just have had so so luck with tank coatings. We have done a few motorcycle tanks and they do OK at best. IMO and what I have seen they stay good for a few years. On this one I would rather just replace it and forget about it if I could.

Or has anyone found a tank from another newer car that just happens ta fit in the 240Z ?

Again thanks for the help guys. I am just a fan of new parts on some things. IMO it keeps the headaches down.

Might want to talk to these guys first before you make up your mind...
