Has any one got a steel tank for a 40+ that isnt rusted out?
Ikeep looking at my 40+ with a replacement brass tank bought from john and thinking it doesn't look right,yes i know there horrible etc etc but there you go!
I'm willing topay a reasonable price or will swap for a very horrible featherweight(no ignition,very weird tank, home made prop,mounting bracket made out of angle iron, but has good compresion)
No rick its not the beauty you sold me! its a dog of a motor i bought as part of a job lot

Hi mick,yes oblong one is what i i want,don't care what it looks like as long as its not beaten to death or leaks like a sive!the gear box on my featherweight is fine although it will need a proper sump plug rather than the plastic pluming fitting it has at the mo(told you it was nasty!).
Think john can help you out there,you will also need a prop as mine has a rather creative home made one,if you was to replace the ingnition it will run and pump water as i ran it breifly before taking the ignition system off for another project.Pm me and we can sort something out
