Hello all, >At minimum I have to re-line my tank, option two of course is to get a = >new one and my thoughts are of course drawn to the 22.5 gallon Winkler = >gas tank I saw on www.vanagain.com. For a photo check out = >http://www.vanagain.com/images/gastank1.jpg. Has anyone had experiece = >with these? I had one of those in my hands. But the picture don't show the real 85 Liter fuel tank, it's the usual 60 Liter. The 85 Liter extends by about 20 cm to the back end of the van. The purpose of this picture is just to show where some flexible plates have to be mounted before installation. The 85 Liter tank is built for the South African Microbusses. Check the South African VW site about this: http://www.vw.co.za The tanks are manufactured somewhere in Germany, don't know where exactly. But they are only sold in South Africa. Even Winkler imports those tanks from there. Quality is like those you know from usual 60 Liter tanks. Regards Helmut '80 Vanagaudi |
