Re: Stus-List Fuel tank replacement

Phil: I just did this replacement last winter in my LF38. I had my boat yard do it but I could have done it myself if I had enough time. The partial bulkhead just in front of the tank has to be completely removed--a Fein saw works great for this! Then you have to remove the water heater and

Stus-List Fuel tank replacement

My fuel tank on my LF 38 began leaking pretty badly recently. I pumped out all of the diesel. What are my options for replacement? Should I replace with a stock sized tank or go another route? Is this something I can do myself? -Phil James 1982 C&C LF 38 Annapolis, MD _

Hit send too soon. Replaced the original tank a year ago for somewhere around $200. Perhaps $250. Measure your old tank as Moeller makes many sizes and capacities. Best price was Amazon.

Hello All, I have an '89 30 MKII. It has what I believe to be the original fuel tank. The tank has two access ports. They look like they may have been added, but could be original, not sure. Both ports are held closed with machine screws. The aft port does not leak and I have yet to remove it.
