Vintage Gas Tank From Zip Tornado Kart Craven Equipment Racing Go Kart Fuel Tank on 2040-parts.com
Indianapolis, Indiana, US
THIS TANK CAME OFF AN OLD ZIP TORNADO KART. I SHOW WHATS LEFT OF THE CART WHILE ITS STILL ON IT IN THE SECOND PICTURE. THE TANK WAS MADE IN ENGLAND BY CRAVEN EQUIPMENT. I BELIEVE ITS A FIBERGLASS TANK WITH A STEEL NECK AND CAP. ITS NOT CRACKED OR BROKEN ANYWHERE THERE ARE SOME CRACKS IN THE PAINT BY ONE OF THE MOUNTING HOLES (SHOWN WELL IN A PICTURE) BUT THEY ARE NOT THROUGH THE FIBERGLASS. ALSO NOTICE THERES TWO MOUNTING HOLES BY THE ONE CORNER NOT SURE IF IT CAME THAT WAY OR IF SOMEONE DRILLED AN EXTRA HOLE I CANT FIND ANY OTHERS TO COMPARE WITH. THERE ARE VARIOUS SCUFFS AND SCRATCHES IN THE PAINT AND SOME DECAL RESIDUE IN PLACES. ALSO LIGHT SURFACE RUST AROUND THE STEEL FILLER NECK BUT NOTHING SERIOUS AT ALL. THE CAP IS IN GOOD SHAPE AND GOES ON AND OFF THE TANK JUST AS IT SHOULD NOTHING BENT OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY. THE FUEL AND VENT VALVES SHOW SOME AGE AND HAVE ALITTLE CORROSION BUT APPEAR INTACT. THE LEVERS TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE VALVES ARE NOT MOVING RIGHT NOW BUT I DIDNT TRY HARD AT ALL FOR FEAR OF DAMAGING THEM. ID BET WITH SOME OIL OR WD 40 THEY WOULD LOOSEN RIGHT UP I JUST HAVENT MESSED WITH THEM. THE VALVES MAY NEED SEALS OR GASKETS SINCE THIS IS SO OLD I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING FOR SURE SINCE I CANT TEST THEM. NOTICE IVE INCLUDED A BUNCH OF PICTURES SO YOU CAN SEE IT FROM ALL SIDES TOP AND BOTTOM. I WILL PACK THIS VERY WELL FOR SAFE SHIPPING. IM ALSO SELLING THE ORIGINAL EMBOSSED ZIP TORNADO 125 FIBERGLASS FLOOR PAN YOU SEE ON THE KART IN ANOTHER AUCTION.

GM fires engineers, executives after ignition switch recall probe
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Update: New story containing new information, additional details of terminations added. General Motors has dismissed 15 employees, including at least eight executives, after an internal investigation found “a pattern of incompetence and neglect” that led to 11 years of delays in recalling millions of cars for a fatal defect, CEO Mary Barra said today. Barra promised that the company would address future safety issues far differently, warning employees that failing to report risks would make them “part of the problem” and even inviting them to contact her directly if they couldn't get potential defects addressed themselves.
