Default '79 Newell Water Tank Leaking ?

'79 Newell Water Tank Leaking? While traveling last month the stainless steel water tank in our '79 Newell began to leak. After removing the tank we found numerous pinhole leaks on the bottom of the tank along the weld lines for the interior baffles. We've soldered them as a temporary solution and are looking for recommendations on replacing that tank.

'79 Newell Water Tank Leaking - You have a number of alternatives. A metal fab shop in your area can probably duplicate the stainless tank. Probably an expensive solution. You might also have a custom tank made out of heavy sheet plastic. We just did a web search and found this supplier: http://www.all-rite.com/customtanks.html You might also do a search to see if you can find a vendor who has a moulded plastic tank in a size that you can use. From time to time, we have seen ads for vendors offering a variety of tanks in magazines like Bus Conversion and FMCA.
