I have a good GMC Motorhome fuel tank out of the coach.
How do I tell whether it is a Main tank or an Aux tank?
If you need a good gas tank contact me.
Regards,
Don

A good hint when dropping tanks is to drop the front one first,then the
rear.
Naturally raise the rear first. Makes the operation easier.
Also duct tape down the hose so it stays in the channel and not get pinched.
Be sure and replace ALL the vent lines as well as the Vapor separator, and
the generator hose.
The Tank selector switch as it has the old rubber that cannot tolerate the
ethanal.
Also your mechanical fuel pump as it has rubber diaphragm that cannot
tolerate ethanol.
And if nothing else, call me if you have questions as I do return all calls
addressed to me.

The rear tank was shipped with a genset fitting whether it was used (by Coachmen, Norris, and other upfitters) or not.
