Very shiny beautifully made piece

I really like this box. It was light and easy to use. It is very shiny and beautiful in my truck bed. I'm taking away 1 star because I got about 2 gallons less than advertised, but this will still work for my purposes.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Hard to say

NOT 15 GAL AS KNOWN

The tank looks absolutely amazing, the welds are perfect. However, it is advertised as 15 gallons. only holds 13 gallons and my fuel consumption is too high anyway so I only have about 9.5 gallons of working capacity. pretty useless for my application

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Modern

Beware of Foam: Fuel System

This is a very shiny and beautifully finished fuel cell. I'm giving one star because it claims to have anti-splash foam in the tank, which is a lie. I paid more to the supplier because they said the foam was there and wasn't. Buy from another seller. That cannot be trusted.

Pros
  • Ideal for a Small House
Cons
  • Not Sure

MULTIPLE LEAKS! - Fuel system

I just discovered a second leak in this tank. The first leak was discovered a month after receiving this item and was in a weld. I welded and checked the tank. Now the second leak has developed elsewhere, also in the weld. Fortunately, this tank is not sealed, otherwise injury and death may result.

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

30 "L x 12 "W x 9 "H in Parts

According to the description the tank should be 30"L x 9"W x 12"H. Pictured was 30"D x 12"W x 9"H but in the questions the answer to the question was a 12" tall tank. The only reason I chose this tank was that it had to be 12" tall so I had to modify my stuff to fit the tank to the actual size.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Interval

The thing doesn't get any better in spare parts

Ripples on the sides, scratches all over the body and rust on the lid along all threads. oh, and if you're thinking this thing comes with mounting hardware, you're wrong. Cheap Chinese Junk Oh, and in case you're wondering. Because the people selling it don't even know it. SIZE 8AN. Requires 3 different nozzles. Inline, Curved and Cap depending on application (carburetor or EFI)

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • High price

Excellent value for money

Didn't need polishing but I liked it. I would advise buyers purchasing a fuel cell to thoroughly clean it before use. I have accumulated dirt from polishing at the bottom of the tank and would easily clog the filter. Otherwise it was well packaged (no data sheet or instructions) and was perfect for my purpose. Was amazed that I received it in less than 24 hours after ordering.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Crumpled

WRONG TANK FITTING

First of all I would like to say that this tank is very shiny and looks great but that is not what most people buy a fuel tank for. Besides, unless you're under the car, you won't see that shiny shit. I bought this tank for its size and 17 gallon capacity. Well, I could barely get 15 gallons in. Oh yes, you'd better be prepared to clean the crap inside before installing it. IT'S DISGUSTING. I pressure tested it before installing it. pour fuel into it. Said NAF.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Everything ok

NOT AS DESCRIBED, best fuel system

October 2019 I ordered this fuel cell through DNA Motoring and it was not as described from the first moment. First, the description says it comes with "anti-splash" foam. It was not. The description goes on to say that it has a 17 gallon capacity. It's not like this. I recently noticed a fuel leak under my truck, upon further investigation I found that the fuel cell was leaking along a 6 inch weld. I contacted DNA 3 days ago and received no reply. I'm actually "on hold" as I write this, you've

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable shorter than other options
