Does anyone know what kind of gas tank is in a 1989 24 pantera? It is a 50 gallon tank. Finally have new engine in boat after it sitting for two years and it looks like the gasket around the gas level sending unit is leaking. Looks like it is dry rotted and the gas can leak out around one of the screws. Looks like I will only need a gasket and should be good to go. Any feedback on type of tank or if there is a standard gasket. It is about a 2 inch circle and has five screws around it. Thanks!

Somewhere between 50 and 60 gallons, mine has a tag on it, but it is in liters, never bothered to convert. Mine is an '81 though, so could be different.

Finally got the gas all cleaned up and replaced the gas sender gasket. Fired her up and got her ready to splash her. Put her in the water and water was coming in through the out drive. Pulled it and the gear shift cable bellow tore. Took a long weekend too. Will be ready for this upcoming weekend.

On a good note, fired engine up and it sounds great. Will be interesting to see how it runs.
