Chris you are right , in my early morning confusion, the tank I described
is my vent tank , the exspansion tank I us is a Jegs, it is plastic and
cost 16.99 and the part # is 555-511012 which is blue but they come in
different colors and work good and is light. One quart capacity, 1/4 inlet
and petcock drain.
