List,<div>Since joining up and getting my first Sprite I keep hearing about boiling out our fuel tanks but can someone remind me why a replacement tank is not a good idea? Don't get me wrong I prefer stock or nos for all my vechicles but it always seemed like an off the shelf replacement would do fine with the exception of Made in China.....LOL. I do remember Frank telling me how importiant the fitting was on our stock tanks and that I should never damage the fitting as it was not replaceable so I always was careful and still have my original tank. Are replacement tanks a POS or what?</div><div>Lin</div><div><br></div><div>62 Sprite Pinky </div><div>Rat Rod LOL</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br>On Wednesday, February 17, 2016, Mike Rambour via Spridgets <<a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net">spridgets@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Oh, I thought the question was how many hours does a Californian
have to drive to get the good stuff.<br>
<br>
About 5 hours for me... I have learned my lesson, I tend to
stockpile now.<br>

It's been banned in California, but we can still get it here in
the real world. :-)<br>
