Evinrude 2 hp Mate Fuel Tank

[Johnsr]

I have an Evinrude 2 hp Mate that i believe to be an early 1970's model. The fuel tank is rusted inside and i would like to replace it. Where would i be able to locate one or are there any other options?

It seems those tanks are very hard to find. Good luck. But try a free want ad on the Webvertize pages at the Antique Outboard Club's website.

I have not done this but do a search in google or youtube for "gas tank sealer" ... There are several products out there that with the proper cleaning of the inside and sealer applied may get you going for years.

Matter fact, I was going to suggest that. Actually, you may be able to get such a kit at a local motorcycle shop. I've used "Kreem" brand and it works fine. But you do have to follow the directions. One kit will do a whole bunch of those little tanks like that 2hp
