[IC27A] Re: fuel tank removal

[Mark Robertson]

While talking about gas tanks I have a question. My C27 had a universal diesel which was tossed prior to my purchase. The PO bolted a 9.9 Merc 4 stroke on the stern and placed the plastic tank in the Lazarette. My question is can I clean out the diesel tank and use it for the outboard or is the outboard gravity fed and I am stuck using the plastic tank? >>> "Bob" <kniggit...@yahoo.com> 7/30/2010 5:28 PM >>>   I believe, but I am not positive, that the fuel tank will slide into the space for the engine. Obviously if you are just replacing the tank, it would be a drastic option, but if the engine is coming out anyway....
