Hi Ed,
Would you be interested in a used one or two? I have two old tanks that came out of the Twinstar I sold that has the standard cap with screwed in plug and small vent hole.
Later,

John, If Ed isn't, I sure would be, including the gas tanks. how much would you want for them? Mine is origional 1990 production as dated by mfgr on molded bottom.
I epoxied a small crack near the right rear corner up near the 5 gal. level. It appears to hold well but I have not been able to find a 10 x 10 x 14 inch heavy walled poly tank as used in the Forestar.

Hi Ralph/Gang,
I know one of the tanks is busted. The other may be ok, I'd just have to
check. They came out of a Twinstar and have holes in the bottom for the fuel
lines.
I would give them to whoever wants them. I would be willing to just ship the
caps to Ed or whoever if Ed doesn’t want them. If someone wanted the tank,
if it's any good, I might ask for some shipping cost.
Later,
John Cooley

John, Sounds like the aged problem I have also, if one of the tanks is busted. Once they breakdown, there they are. That UV lasts a long time but on mine having the upper area exposed for 16 years does take it's toll.
I have an aduquate cap right now. It's not in bad shape. I have found some other tanks, even a 10 x 10 x 24 that would do the job, but the manufacturer doesn't make it with the proper "skin" coating and therefore recoments that it not be used for lawn mower gas tank (wink, wink). I'm not sure how long a life it would have. At $74.00 plus shipping and fill hole kit, I'm not about to experiment.
Thanks for your offer,
Ohio Ralph
