Chummy tank
#20
About Materials for a petrol tank
My belief is Tern plate is Lead coated steel.
In Oz we have a product called Zincanneal which is zinc covered steel sheet.  Is this what Zintec is?.
I made a 27 petrol tank from Zincanneal in the early nineties, and it is still going strong, using unleaded with no ethanol.
You solder it just like Galvanised Iron.The car has done 25000 miles since.
Care must be taken that you don't use Zincalume which is a baked "paint" type coating.  Fuel dissolves this coating.
and causes blockages.
 Cheers,
Peter
