Temporary fuel tank

[wirelessguy]

I agree that pretty much any bottle and hose will do. If you want to go super expensive you could always grab an Apple Inc. sticker and slap it on the side of this guy...

I use an upside down gallon sized plastic milk jug with a threaded cap as my temp tank. I punched a hole in the plastic cap and jb-welded a brass air hose nipple in there which makes it real easy to use with just about any size rubber gas line.

i used my gas tank just remove the seat flip it around 180 degrees it sits perfectly although i had to use longer vac line other than that even my fuel gauge stayed connected.

I also just used my gas tank. I set it on of these and ran some longer lines. Of course, Steve had to re-do everything I had tried to adjust, but the fuel supply part worked.

I'm with Larry. I just bought $11 worth of Fuel and Vacuum Line and set my tank on my workbench. Works perfect and there is no danger of dropping my tank at all I got four feet of each and it's MORE than enough. In fact, three would have probably been plenty.

I have an extra set of long fuel and vacuum lines that I hook up to my other bike............It works great.

I went to the wrecking yard to find an old overflow radiator tank or a windshield washer tank, but the place was closed. On the way home I remember I had an old lawnmower so I took the tank off of it and picked up some fuel line. I suspended it from a tripod light tower I had, it works quite well. I'm sure if you check at a small engine repair place they would have a extra tank laying around off of something, weedwacker, chainsaw, mower, snowblower. Some of the tanks may already have a fuel shutoff on them.

Eventually I will find a shop space somewhere.

...and don't forget that you have an open invitation to use the garage at 615 backyard mechanic's

One day I will get smart and make a nice temporary fuel rig. It will sure beat the tiny micro funnel I shove into the elevated fuel line. I continue to use it for some reason. I have to refill it every minute. It literally seems like 8 seconds between fill-ups while tuning. ha ha
