EC9192D3-F4A6-4C6F-A01F-F6BF13768DDB.jpeg I’ve looked high and low on the web for a replacement fuel tank. I was given a Stihl 038AV. The tank has been repaired at some point with JB weld. The tank is metal and stamped 1119 791 1000. The plastic tanks on eBay appear different. Anyone have any thoughts.
 
Took the tank off today to take better pictures. Found another part # 1119 351 0500. Still can not locate an exact match for replacement. This may turn into a waiting game, to test my patience.

Started chipping away the JB weld pretty easily to discover 4 holes. I wonder if I could get someone to repair this tank cheaper than finding a replacement?

Contact Shawn Carr and get it welded up. I believe his username is scarr52 or something like that
