I wish I could help you, but I can't. I would like to caution you however, that there is a jackpiner MX tank on the auction site for sale. Don't buy it! I did, and I sent it back because the metal filler neck is so rusted out it is beyond repair unless you were to cut out the entire filler neck and splice in a new one. They have put it back up for sale and it is not worth it for what they want for it.
Have a good day, Doug

Thanks for the info doug, i did in fact mark that one, but noted to myself that it was not worth it, if it had damage.
Thanks for the tip.

Guys,

I would like to thank Ron Carbaugh for helping me out with a Tank.
A great bloke, who went out of his way to find and send the tank.

Adrian
