Gas Tank rebuild

[C Benker]

Does anyone know where to get parts to rebuild a Yamaha 6.3 gallon tank?
The fittings are for an Evinrude?Johnson motor (NOT Yamaha). Have a small leak around sight glass (fuel level).

First of all, welcome to iboats. We always like new members...

If you can, post a picture or three of the tank you are wanting to rebuild. You will get a lot more ideas and good suggestions. Sounds like the tank is a typical OMC/Johnson/Evinrude tank. But I am only guessing... Pop up those pictures for better answers. If it is one of those tanks, you can still buy parts for them. Search for such tanks and even visit Ebay for parts. They made tons of them and therefore parts are still around.

gm280 mentioned eBay and do a Google search. You'll have to do some work yourself.
