Default What's a TD .049-.051 tank mount?

Found one in the local hobby shop. It looks like the size of a tank for an .020.

I have several that I use on sailplane power pods. They are red with a fill tube on the top and a vent tube on the bottom. Fuel line attaches at lower left (looking from front). They hold about 1\2 ounce and work well for my applications.

If you need a larger tank the Norvel one will fit. Added bonus, the pickup can be installed on the bottom or side (for CL).

I think I may have almost figured this out. I know what ya'll are talking about, an engine mount/fuel tank, I have one, a #2440. I just went out to the garage to verify that. But, I also think that was the part # on this thing I'm talking about? I think it is a mis-packaged .020 fuel tank, without the reed hole drilled out, and missing a back plate. It is smaller than a Baby bee tank, and silver, four screws in the bag. I thought it might have been a way to convert a TD to a tank like the reeds have.....Strange...
