I didn't have any problems getting it in. What I think you're thinking about is the fuel pump module I put in mine. That's where I did the cutting and welding. Other than that, just longer straps and bolts like everyone else. Picture of my tank. |

I know this post was a couple of years ago. I read all the info. My SC Rambler tank is fine and not rusted. Going to box it up with all the other factory parts. But I was considering using the Spectra AMC 1 gas tank because the fill tube is in the center of tank providing more room for the tail pipes. All dimensions are about the same except it would be about 1 1/2 inch lower. Can't tell from the picture is there a 2 inch tube coming out of tank to connect to my gas fill tube or do need to weld a pipe on for that? Also I would need a new fuel sending unit with 3/8 inch line, do any of you have part number for that could not find one on Spectra web site? Maybe I would need to get a factory fuel sending unit from 1978 and up AMC AMX? Thanks for any help Larry |

Does this AMC 1 gas tank use a filler tube and grommet?
My Rambler tube is attached to tank, connecting tube for gas cap is 2 inch dia. Does anyone no the dia. of filler tube that works with grommet and will I need an adapter. Also does the AMC 1 tank taper at the rear towards bumper. Dia height states over 9 inches. My Rambler tank tapers down to about 5 inchs toward bumper it is level with bottom of bumper. Not sure if AMC 1 tank will be to low. Car is still up on jacks just body. Thanks for any help. Larry
