Precision racing parts demand flawless execution, and the Version II Plastic 3-Quart Upright Fuel Tank (PUFT3-V2) delivers the exact fuel consistency required for high-stakes motor kart racing. Engineered as a direct replacement for KG 3.5-litre models, this 3-quart tank maintains the exact mounting height of its predecessor, ensuring a hassle-free swap without altering your kart's center of gravity. Included with a high-flow cap and integrated suction unit, this system is built to keep your engine fed under the most extreme lateral G-forces.
Optimized Fuel Delivery for Motor Kart Racing
In the relentless environment of sprint and oval tracks, fuel starvation is not an option. This Version II iteration features refined stability and enhanced leak resistance to combat high-vibration harmonics. Designed to be secured with an 8mm x 1.25 screw (not included), it pairs perfectly with the BWL2907 wing nut knob for sprint karts or the PM-48-1 locking collar clamp for single upright oval setups. The translucent plastic construction allows for rapid visual level checks in the pits, saving crucial seconds during race prep.
Seamless Integration with Your Go Kart Chassis For Sale
Whether you are building a fresh setup from a bare go kart chassis for sale or retrofitting an older Euro-style frame, the PUFT3-V2 offers unmatched versatility. The upright orientation guarantees that the fuel pickup remains submerged during aggressive leans on oval tracks, while the balanced load distribution aids in lightning-fast directional changes on sprint circuits. The resilient plastic compound withstands severe heat cycles, preventing the expansion and warping that can misalign your mounting hardware.
Reliability That Complements Go Kart Sprockets and Powertrains
Every component on your kart must work in harmony. Whether you are dialing in your top speed with precision go kart sprockets or trying to extract every ounce of briggs and stratton lo206 horsepower, a steady fuel feed prevents bogging on the straights and allows you to push deeper into the braking zones. Equip your kart with the PUFT3-V2 and experience the reliability that translates directly to lower lap times.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this tank a direct replacement for my existing KG 3.5L tank?
A: Yes, the PUFT3-V2 is engineered with the exact mounting height and dimensions of the KG 3.5-litre model, allowing for a seamless, drop-in installation without needing to adjust your kart's center of gravity.
Q: What hardware do I need to mount this tank?
A: The tank is designed to be secured using an 8mm x 1.25 screw. For sprint karts, it pairs perfectly with the BWL2907 wing nut knob, while oval setups typically utilize the PM-48-1 locking collar clamp.
Q: Will the fuel pickup work during high-speed cornering?
A: Absolutely. The integrated suction unit is specifically designed to draw fuel from the lowest point of the tank, ensuring the pickup remains submerged even under the extreme lateral G-forces experienced on sprint and oval tracks.
Q: How do I check my fuel levels during a race?
A: The PUFT3-V2 is manufactured from a high-quality translucent plastic, allowing for rapid visual fuel level checks in the pits without the need to remove the cap.
Q: Does this tank warp under high engine temperatures?
A: No, the tank is constructed from a heat-resistant plastic compound engineered to withstand severe heat cycles, preventing the expansion and warping that can often cause mounting hardware to misalign.
