We have new club member that is in the process of restoring a '72 Spitfire
Mark IV. He is need of a good used fuel tank. His current one is like Swiss
cheese on top of the tank and the seams are rusted through.He said the only
the only new ones that seem available are for other Spit models. He did not
want to make the conversion and switch the emission vent tubes to adapt to the
new non stock tank from the other Spit models.
If he is force to go with a non stock tank, can the fuel canister be removed
with the fuel vent recovery hoses removed as well. What effect will that have
emission controls. He has a downdraft Weber conversion on a stock Spitfire
engine.
Any insight on parts location and some tech advice would be helpful.
Regards,
Ibsen Dow
