Default Civic Cx gas tank??

I have a 1993 Civic cx. My gas tank has been leaking for the past two month. There is a rust hole about halfway up the tank so i don't usually put more than 10 dollars in my tank. I cant find the CX tank (10 gallon) anywhere , so i'm wondering if the si or ex tank fits in the CX Model. Thanks

as you all ready know, the CX and VX had the smaller tank (17500-SR0-315)
the rest of the EGs had the larger tank (17500-SR3-306)

I'd be very shocked if there were not swappable.
But the fuel level sending unit will have to come with the tank. (pump/mount, filler tubes and mounting straps have the same part numbers)

PM rota92. We must have 2 or 3 tanks around here some where. He's removed them so he may remember what we have.

Find out if they are OE tanks before purchasing. They should be able to pull upa diagram of the tank before purchasing as well.

A 13.5 gallon tank sounds sketchy since the largest tank was the 11.9 gallon DX/Si tank for the hatchback models.

If a 13.5 gallon aftermarket tank exists that fits fine then that'd be pretty cool for miles-per-tank reasons.
