COMMENTS: A 2¼" nylon spinner is included, but the larger engines require extensive trimming of the spinner. If the stock spinner must be trimmed, it is strongly suggested to use an aluminum spinner and lock nut such as TRUQ1065 and TRUQ3063.
If a replacement fuel tank is needed, order the Sullivan 14oz tank (SULQ1742), or the DuBro 14oz tank (DUBQ0214). Some minor trimming and modifications may be required.
