    There's a tank liner that can be poured in there and sloshed around to coat the inside to prevent rust...

    I have not found Rustoleum paint to be resistant to Gasoline. The paint delaminated around the filler from overfilling or spilling on last gas tank I painted with Rustoleum.

    I want to make a fuel tank for my club car with a predator engine. Would this need a fuel pump, or would the carburetor pull the fuel without a pump? I don't know much about these things, but I'm trying to learn 😅

    • @FarmAlarm
      @FarmAlarm  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A carb won't pull. Needs to be gravity fed, of low pressure fuel pump. A vacuum pulse fuel pump would do well on that setup

    Definitely a bad idea to drain out the bottom. It's actually illegal for a car manufacturer or commercial vehicle. Make a feed line that drops in from like a bulkhead fitting or something. Then an aluminum tubing with a flared fitting on one end.

    Did you have to put a fuel pressure regulator on since it's gravity fed. Or can the mechanical fuel pump handle gravity fed?
