      I have two old Mercury 3 gallon gas tanks made by Brunswick. I can use these on my newly aquired Clinton J-9. They both are from the late 70’s-early80’s era and need to be cleaned up. Is there anyplace I can get new rubber parts for the gas caps and gaskets and pick-up tubes? These tanks have been sitting in my shed for 20 years and are in good shape but need refurbishing. Thanks for any help.

          Yes, I do have the connector. I have a complete fuel hose but it is the grey hose that I’ve heard bad things about on this website. Can anyone tell me what they reccomend for fuel hose. And the tanks do need to be refurbished with new rubber parts and gaskets if I can find them.

            you can make gaskets and if you are careful the rubber for the cap.
