Recently picked up old 76 starcraft that was sitting on some private property for years at freinds place.pretty much stripped of interior.
Going to install new tank but not sure where origional was located.had square mounted behind rear port side but can tell not orig.
Looks like there was a filler mounted on front bow port side and a copper line running in a plastic tube assume for fuel supply and a second plastic line to rear assume for vent, but would think vent would have been by filler to indicate full when refueling.
Also filler mount was presant at rear.
Found moeller belly style tank that would fit under new floor but would it be better in front or rear.
Concern is if origanal was up front for balance purposes than installing in rear might cause problems.new tank is 29 gal.
Boat is closed bow
new motor going back in is merc. 120
first time posting like site

thanks tom
