external gas tank

[Peter Schneider]

Any suggestions where to order an external gas tank and hose. I know that after January 1, 2011 the EPA requires portable fuel systems for use with outboard engines to remain fully sealed. Looking to order on line, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Lots of places to purchase them from, depending how much capacity you need/want, like West Marine: Portable Fuel Tanks | West Marine

If Lake Sonoma is in California then you can go to the West Marine store in Santa Rosa.

Pays to shop.. lots of expensive tanks out there.. you'd buy the hose/connectors for the particular engine brand/type/model year..

Verify your identity

($10 less at West Marine for the 3 gal tank! I am amazed)
