I want to replace my old round metal gas tank in my Attex, mainly because it is a PIA to get in and out. And some of the bolts have vibrated loose and fell out of the mounting brackets. I also don't need a 10 gallon tank for my 16hp engine.
I'm thinking about a spun aluminum tank, 10x12 and will have an easy 4 gallon capacity?
Can anyone verify the diameter of the old round metal tanks?
Any other suggestions for replacement tanks?

I just ordered a 10x14" center fill recessed ends tank with a capacity of 4.5 gallons. I will try and update this thread on the tank install, since I have never found any info on replacement tanks for an Attex.

I put a spun aluminum tank in an amphicat. It was originally for a rail desert car! Very nice tank. Came with all the mounting hardware. I think it was a five gallon tank!
I had a chance to measure mine today and the stock tank was aprox. 8.5". So I changed my order to an 8x20 tank which should still give me a 4 gallon capacity.

I went back through my paper work and found that I paid $150 for my tank. I Got mine off E bay with a friends help.
Forgot about this post, the steel original is near a steel Max tank and had planned on referring the Max plastic tank as an option.
Sorry.
