I am not sure you have a problem. My tank was aluminum and it was sitting on
a flat plywood shelf. No rubber or other barrier between the shelf and the
tank. As mine was nearly 40 years old, I would surmise your stainless one
would outlast that easily.

All this tank talk provides an opportunity to ask a question.  I currently
have my stainless steel, cylindrical 20-gallon tank sitting on the deck
(under cover) while I repair wet core underneath its normal location.  There
does not appear to be anything wrong with the tank, so my evil plan is to
simply clean it out and put it back when the core repair is finished.
Should I be thinking about replacing it with a plastic tank?  If so, what's
the benefit of plastic tanks over stainless tanks, and who makes good
plastic tanks for this purpose?

 

Thanks as always.

All this tank talk makes me feel good, since my 40 year old aluminum tank
started oozing fuel a couple years ago - I replaced it with a plastic tank.
I can now just look at the tank and see the fuel level. Ducked that problem
- and the gauge on the new tank isn't that accurate.
