Cruis-a-Day Gas Tank

[LucasMN]

Hey Guys and Gals.

My buddy has an older model boat motor. It has the 2 line fuel lines, going to a "Cruis-a-Day" or "Mile-Master" pressurized 6 gallon tank. I think these were from the early 60's. But anyway, the primer on the tank leaks like no other when priming, and then it leaks when it is pressurized. I have a couple questions, does anyone know where to buy the gasket set for one of these. And also, do any of you know where I can see how to put the guts of this thing together? I want to make sure we are not missing a piece. A HSOforum to view this would be best.

Thanks

You can get a kit to build the pump.

Don't know if you'll find one at a dealer but you can find them on line at Laing Outboard.

Many years ago I had a tank like that repaired at Avon Marine. I don't know if they're still in business. Bruce at Bruce's Outboard may be able to help. He's on Mayhew Lake Road about three miles north of SR high school.

Unfortunately Avon Marine went out of business a while ago... they were bought by Crystal Pierz marine, which 5 or 6 years after they bought Avon Marine was moved to St Cloud and is now closed.

Bruce will probably be able to fix it though... seems like there's not much he can't.
