Alpine Surge Tank needed (metal glycol tank)

[Mike & Mike]

Hi All,

We've got a couple of pinholes in the side of the metal glycol surge tank near or at the mounting bracket that's welded to the left side of the tank. I'm considering both repairs or replacement but cannot yet find a replacement. I contacted Aubrey's in Yakima but Carolyn says she doesn't have that item.

The part number is D5CWO60303 and I've Googled various combinations of "zeros" and "oh's" (the fifth character looks like an "oh") and am coming up empty. (The third character could possibly be a "G".)

If you know where WRV got these from or have seen one in a non-WRV application, please let me know.

Here's a photo of the tank, which is about 6.5" x 8.5" and 21" tall at the rear:

As always, many thanks!

Looked at mine and it's from radiator specialities. If the metal is not thin or rusted I would clean it well and weld up the holes and have it powder coated and return to service. Also there are a couple of salvage alpine on the Internet. They may still have the radiator tank.

Sandy,
Thanks for the tip. I've got an appointment tomorrow for a repair and we'll see how that holds up before I search further for a replacement.

Cheers!
