Hi welcome ,
I don't think you will get a decent second hand one unless your very very lucky as most of them do rot on the filler neck , best bet is to fit a plastic tank from another mk 1 , you will need the straps that hold it up to the floor too and fit a gt pump , the pumps are still available new , I had one off eBay .

Hi mate,


Thank you, can you send me a link on where I can buy the tank and sender unit as I have no clue on where to look please, I would be very grateful

If you just search eBay for mk 1 punto , there are a few breaking for spares , gt pumps on there too [emoji1303]

What about buying it brand new, is there any where I can buy them

I would think they are a discontinued part now .

I'm just worried that the 2nd hand one maybe no good, would prefer new if possible

Steve Gt is trying to say the 2nd hand NON GT tanks are plastic so that means no rotting away. I'm sure MOTOR HOG spares have a few dismantling at the moment sure they will have a TANK.

Changed the petrol tank on my gt today for a plastic one as mine sprung a leak . Now what I didn't realise two of the original mounting points at each end on the car body foul the plastic tank so I had to grind them off , other than that a straight swap using the two straps that hold the tank up to the floor , the higher you can get the car the better . for more clearance remove the wheel near the filler neck too [emoji373][emoji373][emoji373]
