I had no idea a new plastic 3 gallon tank was almost $40, and the hose assembly with fittings was almost $50

With anything marine they try to stick it you ya. I found a 3gallon tank at a yard sale but had to replace the pick up line inside, and the gauge does not work.

Yeah, I am starting "project Gheenoe" and am about ready to start tinkering with my 4 horse kicker. Figured I would start with the gas can. It was full of sediment and the fitting that goes into the motor was all gummed up. Figured I would run to Wally world and get everything new. I bout sharted when I saw the price of everything. I went home and tried to work on and salvage the can and hose, but I am not going to have a choice but to buy a new setup. Its all shot

This does not sound good. I just found out I have a hole in the fuel tank of my boat, (along with some bad fuel !**##!) I was going to buy and hook up an external tank for a trip coming up next week until I can get it to my mechanic.... Whats the largest external tank Wally World carried??
