Default Fuel Tanks

What are the options for gasoline fuel tanks. I am looking for 16oz tank that is no more than 2 in in width. Sullivan and Dubro are closer to 3 in. What are my other options? If I need to make one myself,, any tips?

If you weren't aware, you'll have to buy a brown stopper and tubing to use with gas instead of the ones furnished for glow.

Randy,

this might just work. I know about the gas stopper. I am hoping that the tank itself is gas proof as their flex tank are not gas-proof.

thanks a lot.

B & B has a 16 oz gas tank that is 2.3" wide.

www.bennettbuilt.com

He also sells the fittings to modify a Nalgene bottle to a gas tank, but you're on your own there. Lab supply houses? I've seen odd shaped tanks for jets to saddle around and on either side of the turbines and in the wing roots. No idea where thay find them.
