I'm wondering if the gray water tank in my '65 GT
is polyethylene. It's made of an opaque, tan plastic material and looks
like a pan with a flat piece welded on top--rather than molded with rounded
corners on all sides. When I think of polyethylene, I think of a thinner
plastic that is translucent in the lighter color ranges. My tank is made
from a material that is about a quarter inch thick and relatively rigid.
Does that sound like ABS?
I agree about the use of silicone caulk -- or any
other type -- to make a repair of this kind. That's only for emergencies.
Whatever I decide to do, I would like it to last for many years. The
blackwater tank is the last thing I'd like to see fail at an inopportune
moment.
Harvey, Thanks for all the info on your search for
a replacement. It will shorten the process for me greatly. I'll
either repair this one(if that's possible), or go with a replacement as you
have.
