Original Fuel Tank
« on: April 16, 2014, 10:41:29 PM »
Hey guys I was wondering if there is a way to tell an original fuel tank.  I have enclosed a few pictures of the tank in question.

Thank you,

David,

David,
  If that tank has a part number with a "Z" in the fourth position, like C9ZZ-9002-x, it is most like likely a service replacement and not a factory original. It may be identical to the original however. I would remove the stamped part number with a good solvent like Goof-Off.
