Plastic Fuel Cell with hole in it.

[Boyer343]

So i took a chance today and spent ten bucks on a plastic RCI 12 gallon fuel cell. It has a very small hole in the bottom of it. Anyone got any ideas on the best way to fix it? Ill post photos of it tomorrow. Thanks again.

Drill the hole to the proper size for an AN fitting then use an AN cap on the fitting.

Thanks, Its on the bottom too, so then it could double as a drain.

Every fuel cell we put in we install a feed in the bottom/lower sidewall of the cell.

Get a bulkhead fitting in -8 size, get two stato seal washers,(the plastic ones suck) drill the hole to the -8 size int he plastic cell and if you have the steel shell drill that hole out with a hole saw that is a bit larger than the bulkhead fitting and washer.

Install and use the hole in the bottom of the tank for your feed line. Gravity feed is the best option for an external fuel pump.
