Cheap Auxilliary fuel tank

#1 PostAuthor: ROZZER » Mon Jun 08, 2009 6:14 pm

A few lads have PM'd me for details of my cheap aux fuel tank for using when balancing carbs etc.
Ref to photos of my tank made from an old gear oil container, cut half of base away to use for filling, fix suitable wire or similar to allow suspending from ceiling/garage door etc, plastic tube is Araldited in place, tee piece from Zed Power (fuel tee for Zed9 carbs).
Been using this set up for at least 20 years on all sorts of bikes, Araldite still holding. Cheap as chips and does the job :D .
