Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ RCI 2191A 19 Gallon Cell: Advanced Features for Optimal Performance by Patrick Burton

Overall good tank, bad intake manifold

Well... the good and the bad Good - the tank does the job really well. For moderate terrain, maybe a four-wheeler with only the occasional bump, a tank will do. The construction seems pretty solid, the tank looks good, the AN fittings are true to size. Ear tube is junk. Failed and luckily left me only a few miles from camp. See image. I can say that there is porosity in the weld. Now, with the higher speed and more constant hits, the tube was probably vibrating badly. So I can't say the snorkel doesn't survive slow rock crawling. But I'd have to cut out the plug and put in a bulkhead fitting with a soft suction hose, which isn't that difficult for all intensive purposes, but after spending time installing it becomes a major pain. The suction pipe was also at the bottom of the tank with me very rough cuts and abrasions which I only noticed after the pipe broke. The lever on the fuel gauge also broke off, again the tank was probably not designed for fast desert journeys. I contacted the seller directly and after 5 days still no answer. Everyone, no matter if 4 days after the end of the guarantee period, at least writes back to me that the guarantee is over. I'm just hoping for an answer and help in solving the problem. I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed
