Porsche Fuel Tank - 914 70-73 vs Fuel Tank: 914 (1970-1973)
Buy the 62-liter tank (Product A) for a 914 1.7-2.0 built through December 1973. It is the only one of the two with a stated 914 fitment, and its 62 liters matches the factory tank. Product B is listed as an 80-liter main tank but its own description says 62 liters and 1965-1973 911, so its capacity and fitment are unclear. No prices were given for either part, so compare live store prices on the product pages.

Questions and answers
- Which tank fits a 1973 914 2.0?
- Product A states fitment for 914 1.7-2.0 from 1970 to 12/1973, so it covers a 1973 2.0. Product B's description points to a 911, so confirm fitment with the seller before buying it.
- Is the 80-liter tank really 80 liters?
- The specs say 80 liters but the description says 62 liters. Treat the capacity as unconfirmed until the seller verifies it.
- Does either tank carry an E-mark?
- Product A is listed as not E-marked. Product B gives no E-mark information.
- Which lasts longer?
- Both are Dansk tanks, and neither listing gives a warranty or thickness figure. Product A's painted steel is the only corrosion protection described.
- Is one worth extra money?
- No prices were provided for either tank, so there is no premium to weigh yet. Check current store prices before deciding.
- Can I fit the 80-liter tank to gain range?
- Only if the seller confirms it is a 914 tank and that 80 liters is the real capacity. A larger tank can also foul the spare wheel well or sender, so verify before ordering.
