Need a hammerhead tank or similar
 
I want to convert my Odyssey to a gravity feed. The tank I had on my old hammerhead looked to be just about right.

If anyone has one I would be happy to buy it. :cheers:

Have you looked into the spun aluminum tanks like most of the others have done?

Of course there's 1 for 100 bucks now that I rebuilt the whole fuel system..lol

Do those accept the standard petcock?

Melted a piston.


Why I didn't go with my gut and put a gravity feed system on this thing I will never know. Gravity never fails.

how did your fuel system melt a piston?

I lost fuel flow for some reason. It leaned the motor out while running wide open.

Wish I knew what happened. Did a plug check and it was actually a little rich. I was ok with that, my thinking was I would prefer to change a plug once in a while rather than melt a piston.

Ran awesome for about 20 minutes then poof.
