The tanks are NOT the same!

The filler neck is on the rear of the sedan tank and in the front for the hatch.
I out a sedan tank in my Civic hatch beater and had to do some creative fabrication to get it to work. If I didn't get this nearly new tank for next to nothing, I wouldn't have used it.

That is incorrect.

Hatch and CRX tanks are the same. The sedan tank is different.

As Ihatedomestic said, the filler necks are positioned differently.

DAMN... Guess i jus goin have to find a sedan tank or get the coversion done to the crx tank.... The only conversion was to the filler neck right? Everything else bolted up correctly?


U think changing a 1.5 carb to a sohc zc vtec is worth it? I plan on goin boost after the conversion.

why do you have to change your gas tank to convert to fuel injection?
