New gas tank

[ftn96]

Any special conditioning or anything like that before I get started on this dog? This will be a brand new OEM from LMC.
Just bolt it up, fill it up and go? or what?

one's outta a 79 suburban and the other outta 1987 i believe... neither had tbi on them.. is there a difference?

Have heard that there is but Im not sure. The LMC catalog show a year group of 81-86 and then 87-91. How muc hwould you want for the 87 should we find that it is the right one? Also, are you willing to ship it to TN?

Why didn't you get a poly tank? A mnetal one will only rust again.
Even OEM's get it now. My 96 Dodge has a factory poly tank.

Because it was like $329 vs. $150. But Im gonna coat the $hit out of it will undercoating. It should last as long as I own it.

Why insist on counting when the ring gear has the tooth counts stamped in?

Has anyone used a gas tank sealant before?? I'm going to be replacing my tank soon too and I was looking at the different sealants from POR and other companies. I haven't had any problems with rust at all, just LOTS of dents and gouges. My 31 gallon tank is now about 25 gallons. I was just wondering if the sealants were worth it or are they just for aging tanks that have rust or leaks?
