Default Re: Fuel Tank - Plastic?

Quote:
Anybody have experience or know about plastic fuel tanks?
I had a 45 gal plastic tank in my 2003 Whaler Dauntless. It was located in the center console. The only issue was that it eminated a gas odor, that turns out to go with the territory. Not fumes, just an odor from osmosis or whatever. I don't know if I would seal plastic under the floor without really good ventilation.

If I were to replace the fuel tank in my 20, which is under the console, I would use plasic in the same location and add a vent in front.
