Can you install a multifuel tank on a gasser truck, and just leave the pump in place for a pickup tube?

Started to clean out the gasser tank on the M108, and the back side and top is pinholed with rust. Do have two multifuel tanks sitting here, and the truck will need one eventually when it gets a Multifuel in it.

Yup, it'll work fine. Just like when people put the replacement pump from ODiron on the top of the tank.

Yes, I have a multifuel tank on my '52 Gasser. You will need an adaptor to get the fuel line to bolt up. Other than that, everything will be the same for mounting.

Got it done and running. Nice to have more than 5 gallons of fuel... Plugged the return line for the multi, and hooked the vent and pickup to the pump. Had to get some adapters, and plugs, not a bad job to do. The intake pump isn't hooked up, using the mechanical pump on the motor.

You will need about 1-1/2 to 2" of fuel in the bottom of the tank to get consistant flow through the non running pump. At least I do.
