The hole punch trick is to quick drain them and a great way to ruin a good part.

I'm not a particularly loyal customer, with a few exceptions.
I tend to shop online where I find the best price. Because of past experience with them I only use Rock Auto for a price point, then get their price matched elsewhere, usually Advance.
But I also get parts from other places, including ebay and Amazon.
I recently got a Spectra rear 38 gallon tank from FuelPumpwholesale.com

Applications are wrong. No F100 listed, no 1978/79's listed.

Marked on tank part number: D3TZ-9002-C (O-S-I * catalog sez: replaced by D8TZ-9002-K) .. 20.2 Gallon Mid-Ship Fuel Tank-Use with Evaporative Emission / Obsolete

1973/79 F100/350 Regular Cab 2WD / 1977/79 F250 4WD Crew Cab / 1978/79 F350's on the 140" wheelbase (all 2WD).

Evap/Em: Fuel vapor valve fits into hole in tank.

* O-S-I = Obsolete-Supercede-Interchange

Thanks everyone for looking, I did see the ebay one today too. Came across this website today at work discountgastanks.com.

Going to scout out wreaking yards again next week, anyone want me to keep an eye out for anything for them?

He I recognize that truck, lol its mine.

So you looking for one of them bars too HIO Silver?

I am working on getting them reproduced at a local metal shop (at least the bends are getting done there). I have another original one for one for sale, but it is spoken for already.

But the guy never showed up the first time he was suppose to, so we shall see what the future holds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.
I still have my original. It is not rusted out. It is solid, but will need to be opened and cleaned out. I replaced it due to crud sucking through the fuel line.
Part number C5TZ-9002-A
