got mine from OBP (locost registered trader ) 6 gallons and ISTR about £105.
I am also about get at fuel tank.
So would be interested in what you will be going for, to hopefully compare ideas.
Size - I am wanting a slightly larger (taller) one than you at 8 gallons.
Swirl pot - central position hanging down.
Internal baffles - open to ideas
Fuel injection tank
- outlet (Jic 6) from swirl pot. Low position.
- inlet return from fuel regulator (Jic 6 or smaller?) Where should this return be? near top of tank (so that hot(er) returned fuel is returned to top
of tank and not used in outlet - or will this cause problems on low fuel?).
- vent with valve.
- position of fuel filler (is yet to be decided but needs to be on the top of the tank).
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Another vote for Deneo, top bloke.
Hey RoadkillUK, in your avatar you show a Locost that got rear-ended. Do you have any info on what that did to the fuel tank?
It squashed it and made it leak That too was a Deneo tank.
There are some pics on Flickr .. look for Roadkilluk.
