***1913-1920 Fuel Tank Assembly (Round)***

Post by VowellArt » Thu Oct 10, 2019 8:03 pm

I'm also not quite sure if the Round tank has or does not have a cork cushion like my oval tank does. So if anybody knows for sure that there is such a thing or some type of material used between the tank and the mounting bands, please let me know and I'll add it to the drawing. Also if I've left off some piece that I haven't drawn here, please let me know, because I've never seen one of these tank systems up close.

Nice work!!

I really do not know about this with any certainty, but it seems like I remember that there are interior baffles. Maybe someone who knows better than I can weigh in....

As far as I know all fuel tanks have interior baffles, but since they don't show and are only on the inside, there isn't much I can do to show them in a drawing unless I make a cross section and the reason I don't is precisely because I don't know where those baffles are either, but I figure there are probably about 3. :)
