[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 279535, member: 7376"] You can thank the good old Obama administration and the US EPA for ventless fuel tanks. They SUCK. Plain and simple. They're also low-permeation. The plastic that they're made out of is a lot more expensive to produce and the cost trickles down to the consumer, and of course the gov makes more tax dollars. If you can find an old style tank that isn't destroyed, do it now before they can't be found. I recently saw a OEM Yamaha metal tank go for over $100 at a local auction. The buyer said he wanted a non-epa tank and knew it'd go for lots of money. Wow. I've got a couple plastic OEM Yamaha 6 gal tanks stashed at work. Both need new caps but if I can ever find a couple good caps I'll be good to go. [/QUOTE]
