It seems Bonar Plastiques France, the original supplier, is no more.
Does anyone know where I can source a new plastic fuel tank for diesel (120 ltr), given that it is an extremely tight fit ( existing tank just squeezes in, 116 x 47 x 25)
Many thanks in advance

I see you are in the UK. I would try Tek-Tanks, they have good reputation and should be able to replicate the original dimensions

Hi Hessian im assuming you are looking for a new tank because your old one has a split or crack in it ( I could be wrong but this tip might help others). Last year I removed my plastic tank to clean out sludge and growth and discovered a split in the top of the tank next to the fuel pick up A friend suggested I try and plastic weld it as I had nothing to loose if I failed i googled plastic welding, watched a few videos and gave it a go The result was surprisingly good and is still holding up you just need a soldering iron and cable ties for welding rods Since I have discovered this new skill I have been fixing every broken plastic thing I can find i hope this helps, good luck

Many thanks for your helpful response - however, I'm not sure that getting the tank out of its extremely tight fit, & back, is within my DIY competence (or patience threshold)…..but I will think on't !
