Attwood 8812LPG2 12 Gallon Portable Marine Fuel Tank with Fuel Gauge, EPA and CARB Certified
The Attwood 8812LPG2 is a 12 gallon portable marine fuel tank built for boats that need reliable, code-compliant fuel storage on board. Constructed from automotive-grade, multi-layer high density polyethylene (HDPE), the tank withstands the internal pressure of a closed fuel system while resisting the temperature swings and rough handling common on the water. An integrated fuel gauge lets you monitor fuel level at a glance without disconnecting lines or guessing at remaining range.
Fuel management is handled by an automatic vacuum valve, which maintains steady fuel flow to the engine without any manual venting or adjustment during operation. The tank's low-permeation material construction minimizes fuel evaporation and loss over time, and the tank is tested to meet EPA and CARB emissions requirements as well as ABYC standards for portable marine fuel tanks, so it is ready for use in states and situations with strict evaporative-emissions rules.
The tank uses standard 1/4 inch NPT fittings, allowing it to connect to common marine fuel line and fitting hardware for straightforward installation. Its brushed HDPE exterior resists scuffing and UV exposure typical of open-deck storage. This is a universal-fit portable tank, suited to outboard and other boats that use portable fuel tanks rather than a permanently installed system.
