[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1628744, member: 1682"] Used steel tanks are crapshoot as condensation lays in bottom and rusts bottom out. Tanks have an empty port on them for a reason. That is what happened to mine that I bought at auction. Micro pin holes just on the bottom. Cut out and welded in new 1/4" bottom. Plus sandblast and paint. Pump had to be rebuilt because fuel got past seals in motor. I came out ok in the end because I bought the pump/tank combo on a small trailer and resold the trailer for what I paid for the whole combo. So I didn't have anything invested in the pump/tank when I started fixing it. [/QUOTE]
