Review on Briggs & Stratton 290816 Metal ๐Ÿข Fuel Tank and Cap: Ideal for Remote Mounting by Nicholas Erickson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

A bit pricey but buy it anyway.

This is an exact replacement for the 8hp Briggs and Stratton engine on my field cultivator. It came in one day. It's a bit pricey but it would cost me over $200 to earn what I could do. As for rust, there was minimal surface rust inside, no problem, these tanks are rolled steel, not zinc plated. As a precaution I sprayed some herbivorous gas in with the oil mixture to leave an oil film inside and then poured it back into the canister. It installed right away and I had no issues with the lid leaking. If it was painted orange to match my cultivator, that would be perfect.

Pros
  • For remote installation
Cons
  • So far so good
