Hey everyone, Never had any insulators or webbing on the gas tank of my 1940 B. Wondering what tank webbing I need to purchase and where to install it to help protect the tank. Thanks |

You can find the woven strap material at most fabric shops. Can’t remember for sure but I’m thing 1 1/2” the 2” wide should work. Place it where the bottom of the tank rests on the support and between the tank and the upper metal strap. ------------- '34 WC #629, '49 G, '49 B, '49 WD, '62 D-19, '38 All Crop 60 and still hunting! |

| Finding tanks that don't leak or fixing so they don't leak is getting harder as these things age, well worth effort to protect the tank. |

| If you can get your hands on some fire hose material, that works really well. You can cut it with a box knife and glue it down. |
