Attwood 8806LPG2S 6-Gallon Portable Marine Fuel Tank with Gauge
The Attwood 8806LPG2S is a 6-gallon portable marine fuel tank built for boats that need reliable, self-contained fuel storage, such as smaller outboard-powered boats or as a backup tank on larger vessels. The tank is molded from high density polyethylene (HDPE) using automotive-grade multi-layer construction that withstands pressure in a closed fuel system and is designed to hold up under temperature swings, sun exposure, and heavy day-to-day use. Low-permeation wall construction reduces fuel evaporation and loss during storage, keeping fuel fresher and cutting down on vapor odor.
This tank includes a built-in fuel gauge so you can check remaining fuel at a glance without disconnecting or lifting the tank, and it is fitted with an automatic vacuum valve that maintains steady fuel flow to the engine without manual venting or adjustment. It uses standard 1/4 inch NPT fittings for straightforward connection to fuel lines and primer bulbs. The tank is EPA and CARB certified and built to meet ABYC standards for portable marine fuel tanks, so it is legal for use across all 50 states. It ships as a single tank (single-pack) measuring 19.82 inches by 13.50 inches by 9.16 inches.
