I need to get a fuel tank prepped (rust removed and coated) to go into my 73. I have several to choose from and the one that looks best is a late tank (75?) with the plastic filler, cap & expansion tank. The 73 came with steel cap, filler and expansion tank and I would like to keep them. Can I just swap early filler neck from the early tank to the late tank?
Thanks Jim |

Thanks for all the info.
I have 6 tanks (I think, maybe it is just 5) but the best looking one was a late one with the plastic filler and expansion tank. And by "best looking" I mean the one that looked like it had the least amount of rust inside it. Of all of them I have none are rust free, typical for a 914. I will probably just pull the tank that is in it now and clean it out. Hopefully it is not pitted badly inside. Thanks Jim |
