[SEL] Coolant tank and Maytag Lamp on E-bay

[Larry Anger]

Tommy - I saw that you had bid on the tank. It is probably too short a tank for a 20HP Reid to look proportioned. Also getting the tank shipped would cost more than the tank is worth if I had to ship across the border. I'll not bid on it Tommy. Probably a tank which would hold 25 or 30 gal. would look better on my engine and would be sure to have adaquate cooling capabilities.

  Larry,
I think it would work as long as you're just running the engine. 
The size tank that Paul has would hold probably 15 gallons full, 
probably 10 to 12 in a working capacity. The water jacket on your 
engine will probably hold about 7 to 10 gallons so the tank would allow 
twice the capacity of your jacket. I think the primary issue would be 
the size of the tank in comparison to your 20 HP Reid. I bid on Paul's 
tank and I thought I might try to use it on a 6 HP engine. But, it 
might work well for what you need also.
