Washer tant mounting strap

[BernieP]

I have a 86 Carrera, does any one have an idea how big the metal strap that secures it is? The tank was missing when I bought the car. I bought a used tank but it did not come with the mounting strap. I was thinking McMaster Carr would have something that would work but how long should it be?

Thanks,
Bernie

Don't even bother with fabricating a part. By the time you drive to a store or order a part(s) then craft on it to make it fit it will be a push.

Original part number is 911 628 081 00 Has been superseded to this part:

Pelican Parts - Product Information: OEM-91162808102

I double checked it on auto atlanta and they are the same price with reference to the superseded part number.

You will need an M6 X 20 hexagon-head bolt (900-378-030-01-OEM)

Good point. They are stainless so they ain't going to fade away.
