    Moped parts adaptable to mini bikes?

    Gas tanks and carbs options for a 3.5

    Interesting. Where can I find a carb adapter? EBay I'm assuming? I removed the gas tank clean and repair a few leaks. I then red coated the inside of the tank and while it was drying outside over night someone in my aptment complex stole it.... I don't know why. But if you do have a tank...

    Ive got a used round gas tank on the way, I dont think i need a fuel pump as long as the tank is mounted above the carb for a gravity fed fuel system, right?
