I have a 1974 Ericson 35 Mk 2 and am in the process of replacing my original Atomic 4 with a new Beta Marine 25. I am wanting to install a fuel gauge in my original 22 gal. steel fuel tank but before I drill a hole to install that, does anyone know if the original tanks came with baffles or is it just one large empty space?? (I know how dangerous drilling into an empty gas tank is so I am planning on ensuring all of the gasoline is out (or as much as I can get out ) then filling the tank to overflowing with water - then drilling the hole. I am planning on drilling an oversize hole so that I can clean and access the inside of the tank and then install the gauge onto the cover plate for my access hole)
Thanks,
David
