adding a new reservoir to a Wagner loader

Teakettle · Jul 8, 2014

As seems to be the case with many of them, my Wagner WF3 tube-frame loader has a small leak in the lower tube that's used as a reservoir. I'm trying to decide whether to go to the hassle of trying to get it welded up or adding an external reservoir tank like the ones sold at Northern Tool. If any of you has put one of those tanks in, how big a tank did you get and how did you mount it? It's not obvious where the best place to try to attach it would be. Thanks.

Here's a picture of mine while it was off the tractor. If needed I can get you pictures of it it now on the tractor. Still painted the same nice Autumn Brown. Hold 5 gal. Don't know if it was store bought or home made. Fits in real good.

had a AC WC where the PO used a propane tank.
(I don't know if I would want to be welding fittings on an old tank, but he did and it worked fine)

Have you checked out the site below? They MAY have something a bit more reasonable than the $$$$ site you mentioned.
