Hello all, first time here. I have a 2001 Wellcraft 160. While doing a floor replacement notice my poly fuel tank was in really bad shape and also needed a replacement. I couldn’t find the same exact one, went to a boatyard in Miami and bought a 2017 aluminum tank (same measurement) that was removed of a Boston Whaler, but this of course is a new style tank (EPA Approved) I have two questions, will this tank work same way as the old one? Is there anything I need to know? Also, the pickuo line in this tank is not a nipple that you can connect a hose, It look like a quick connect fitting, I was told in the boatyard before buying, that is a fuel demand valve and that I can get it anywhere. Well I Bought the tank and now I’m very confused, Im not sure if this is a Boston Whaler specific fitting or universal fitting. Wanted to ask before start throwing money out there. Here is a picture of the pickup line/fitting.
