fuel tank replacement

I just got a call from the radiator shop, the fuel tank i pulled on my 1970 911t is leaking under 4 lbs of pressure. i sent it in to have it cleaned and sealed. anyone know a good place to get new/used tanks? I found one for sale from a 1966 912, it looks to be the same shape but i dont know if it will work with the fuel pump in my car. any suggestions?

I JUST pulled mine ('71 E) to put in a fuel cell. It is in good shape and clean. You can have it for $50 plus shipping if you want.

E

(rereading, I guess you have found one. Don't know about the 912 tank but if you have MFI, mine would work for you.)

There are galvanized tanks available for the early body style. I am not sure if Pelican carries it yet. Performance Products carrys one for $324

Dad used one on his 912 and liked it. There is also a gas tank restoration service that is about the same price.

Keep in mind that the aftermarket fuel tanks (or even a new tank direct from Porsche) don't come with the rubberized coating on the outside. I am trying to determine the best way to apply the coating to my new tank.
