VerifiedHello, welcome, my name is ***** ***** do I have the pleasure of speaking with? I have been in the marine industry for 25+ years have been a certified marine technician since 2006 and I will be happy to help you.
Please note that I am on east coast time and I do come and go throughout the day from roughly 6 AM to 6 PM EST.
You will get an automated phone call pop up from the website, this is sent to everybody automatically, and not sent by me personally. Please ignore this for now.
I am sorry to hear you are having these problems with your boat. I know that can be frustrating. Hopefully, we can get you back on the water quickly.
Your question was - Can I use the same tank as I currently use for my 20 hp Evinrude?
Answer - I would be happy to help you with that. The short answer is yes you can. There isn't anything special about the tank itself. As long as the tank is big enough to suit your needs, and ventilates properly when the engine runs, there is no reason you can not use the tank you have.
If any part of my answer is confusing, incomplete, or you need more detail on the issue. Please reply and let me know. I am not done until you are happy. If I have saved you considerable money or a trip to the dealer. Please consider leaving me a bonus tip for my efforts. You will be brought to the tipping screen after you select a rating for my service.
Thanks for letting me assist you, and stay healthy!

Note to the reviewers, this question has been marked as Answered.
No it doesn't. I would need an actual model number. That is not a model number.
