Replace Your Battered Fuel Tank with a New Dorman Fuel Tank

When’s the last time you looked at your fuel tank? If your vehicle has seen some serious miles, it’s a good idea to slide under there and check for rust or cracks (especially at the seams) that can become a source for leaks. If things don’t look so hot, it’s time to replace the tank with a new one.

Dorman makes some nice direct replacement tanks for more than 95 percent of cars on the road. The tanks are made from the same materials the factory used—if your vehicle had a steel tank, that’s what Dorman makes your new one from. The tanks also accept stock fuel system components like in-tank fuel pumps and have all the necessary connections for fuel lines and filler necks. Dorman fuel tanks don’t cost an arm and a leg, leaving you with some money in your pocket for other vehicle repairs or performance upgrades.

If you have a classic American car or truck, Dorman makes replacement fuel tanks for you too. Summit Racing carries tanks for 1950s-80s GM trucks, 1964-73 GM A-Bodies, first-gen Mustang and Camaro/Firebird, and lots more. If you’re trying to revive a vehicle that’s been sitting a long time, check out this article on our OnAllCylinders blog to see how a couple of guys brought an old F-100 back from the dead, including installation of a new Dorman fuel tank.

Summit Racing also carries Dorman replacement fuel tank mounting straps, filler necks, vent valves, and other components to finish your tank installation.
