Clean Storm 20140627, 13-Gallon Aluminum Fuel Tank for Pressure Washers & Truckmounts, 1/4" NPT Connections
Description
The Clean Storm 20140627 is a heavy-duty 13-gallon aluminum fuel tank designed to expand fuel capacity and deliver extended run times for high-demand equipment. Built from rust-resistant 0.090-gauge aluminum with fully welded seams, this general-purpose auxiliary tank reliably stores gasoline, diesel, oil, or bio-fuel for exterior applications. It features dual bottom-draw 1/4" NPT pipe connections to accommodate dual-equipment setups or return fuel line configurations on modern small engines. Every tank is 100% pressure-tested and submerged to ensure complete leak-free reliability in tough commercial and marine environments.
Features
- Heavy-Duty Aluminum Construction: Fabricated from 0.090" rust-resistant heavy-duty aluminum for maximum durability in exterior and harsh marine environments.
- Fully Welded & Pressure-Tested: Features 100% fully welded seams and undergoes complete submerged pressure testing to guarantee leak-proof performance.
- Dual Bottom-Draw Pickups: Dual 1/4" NPT pipe connections draw fuel directly from the bottom, enabling dual-engine operation or return line usage.
- Multi-Fuel Compatibility: Engineered for extended engine use with gasoline, diesel fuel, engine oil, and bio-fuel options.
- Return Fuel Line Capability: Integrated design accommodates return fuel lines, making it fully compatible with all modern small engine fuel systems.
- Secure Mounting Tabs: Built with robust 0.187-gauge heavy-duty bottom mounting tabs for permanent bolt-down installation on trailers, equipment frames, or pontoon decks.
Applications
- Truckmounted Carpet Extractors: Serves as an auxiliary high-capacity fuel reservoir for mobile truckmount carpet cleaning systems.
- Commercial Pressure Washers: Provides extended fuel capacity for gas- and diesel-powered mobile pressure washing rigs.
- Pontoon Boats & Marine Vessels: Bolt-down aluminum design makes it ideal for permanent or semi-permanent exterior marine fuel storage.
- Commercial Power Generators: Delivers continuous fuel supply for jobsite auxiliary power generators and portable power units.

Tips and Additional Information
Installation Tip: When installing this tank on the tongue of a trailer or utility rig, placing it inside a heavy-duty tool box or protective enclosure is highly recommended to shield the aluminum body from road debris and stone impacts.
Thread Sealing & Connection Guidelines: Use fuel-resistant NPT pipe thread sealant (such as PTFE paste rated for gas/diesel) on the 1/4" NPT fuel ports. Avoid over-tightening fittings into the aluminum threads to prevent thread stripping.
Dual Line Configuration: Both fuel ports feature internal pick-up tubes extending to the bottom of the tank. To use one connection as a fuel return line, trim the pick-up tube inside that specific port. If running a single engine without a return line, cap the unused 1/4" NPT port with an appropriate fuel-rated plug.
Regulatory Compliance: It is the end user's responsibility to verify and comply with all local, state, and federal DOT/EPA regulations regarding safe transportation, loading, mounting, and discharging of fuel tank contents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this tank be used for both gasoline and diesel engines?
Yes. The heavy-duty aluminum construction and compatible internal components are rated for gasoline, diesel, bio-fuel, and engine oil storage.
Q: How do the dual 1/4" fuel lines work?
The tank features two 1/4" NPT connections, each equipped with a bottom-draw pick-up tube. This allows you to run two separate items off the same tank simultaneously, or cut one pick-up tube short to use it as a return line for modern EFI/small engines.
Q: Is this fuel tank safe for permanent outdoor or marine installation?
Yes. Built from 0.090-gauge rust-resistant aluminum with 0.187-gauge mounting tabs, the tank is designed specifically for exterior environments, trailer tongues, and marine pontoon bolt-down applications.
Q: What are the exact outer dimensions of the tank?
The tank measures 18 1/2 inches in length, 14 inches in width, and 12 inches in height.
Warranty & Safety Information
Manufacturer Warranty: Clean Storm products carry standard manufacturer defect coverage covering materials and seam workmanship under normal operating conditions when installed per manufacturer guidelines.
Conditions Voiding Warranty & Safety Hazards:
- Operating or pressurizing the tank beyond standard gravity/fuel pump feed limits (this is a static storage tank, not a pressurized vessel).
- Failure to securely anchor the tank using the 0.187-gauge mounting tabs prior to transport.
- Modifying or welding directly onto the aluminum tank structure post-purchase.
- Improper thread engagement or cross-threading of the 1/4" NPT fuel ports.
- Non-compliance with local, state, or federal highway fuel transportation standards.
