hey guys the bottom corner of the gas tank on my 86 250 is rusted pretty bad... i have the chance to get a good tank from a 200M, wondering if it will fit on a 250es?

no one has tried this? they look pretty similar in pictures. it is an hour drive each way is the only reason i haven't just compared them in person.

No . It wont fit . Take the one you have to a radiator shop and get a price to fix it .

They also make plastic tanks for the 250 if you want a forever fix. Put decals on them and they don't look too bad.

Some last years to decades, some fall right off. Either way, they look great for a long time, beats the heck out of a plain ,big, red, tank.

ahh thats too bad, so basically only a big red 250 tank will work? mines in rough shape, multiple dents and rusted bad on the bottom corners.. very hard to find a tank around here, wish i knew how to do metal brazing
