82 Malibu Wagon in New Zealand

If you are shipping around the world, avoid choosing one with the filler next already attached. Have a radiator shop unsolder your filler neck and swap it to the new tank.

These tanks are damaged by poor packaging - inadequate padding inside a huge box, or with the fill tube left hanging out of a smaller box and bent or cracked when used as a convenient handle by the package handlers. I shipped one back to Rockauto and mercifully, a second one survived the trip packaged the same way.

Also before ordering measure your tank! There was supposed to be two available one was more gallons/liters than the other and the depth was the difference. Please double checked my statement but I believe there was.

Good point. So naturally RockAuto only has with filler neck already attached. Oh well.

So happy I was able to help. 🤣
