hey guys

need to get a usable tank ready to drive the ford untill i can figure a better tank out

i had planed on using this big square s-10 gas tank but it has no provesions for a fuel outlet on the bottom of the tank.
not even a drain plug, just the big mess of shit ontop for an electric fuel pump. wich i realy do not want to use

any thoughts on making a new hole?? welding sounds like a very much bad idea on a gas tank.

so do i drill a hole in it and jb weld a correctly sized nut to the tank or what?????for right now this tanks all i realy got, ina couple months ill have some more cash an buy a differnet tank but for now......?

dispreate for ideas

for a temopary fix use it. You can hook up your manual or electric-on frame] pump to the existing fuel line. its the largest of the two] the smaller[return] line may be plugged and your "new" pump will pump fuel thru the electric one in tank just fine. Do make sure there is a vent tube on the tank so it can breathe. you can always replace it later as cash allows.......

any particular hose to pick as the vent hose, or just grab one?
