Low and sleek, the VKA4010 Aluminum Fuel Tank holds 4 quarts in a compact footprint, perfect for karts where every inch of clearance matters. Its dimensions—7 3/4 inches wide, 8 inches deep, 5 1/4 inches tall—hug the chassis closely, lowering the center of gravity for sharper turns and stable straights.

The rear-mounted petcock simplifies fueling and draining, minimizing spills during frantic pit stops and keeping your focus on the race ahead. Aluminum construction ensures lightweight durability, resisting dents from track debris while dissipating heat efficiently to maintain cool fuel temps.

  • Balanced Capacity: 4 quarts provide ample range for full race distances without frequent refills, aiding strategy in endurance events.
  • Seamless Integration: Designed for standard mounts, it bolts in quickly, allowing more time for testing suspension and gearing.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Withstands fuel additives and moisture, promising longevity that reduces long-term costs.

For kart racers prioritizing aerodynamics, this low-profile tank (SKU: VKA4010) cuts drag by staying flush, enhancing top-end speed. Its slim profile also frees space for larger radiators or exhaust routing, optimizing overall setup efficiency.

Consider the organizational perks: the rear petcock aligns with common hose paths, streamlining plumbing and reducing clutter in the engine bay. In junior classes, where weight management is key, this tank helps young drivers handle like pros by promoting even distribution as fuel burns down.

Durability shines in rough conditions—aluminum's strength prevents warping from vibrations, ensuring consistent flow that supports engine tuning for peak power. Teams running multiple karts benefit from its uniformity, making swaps and repairs straightforward.

Beyond performance, it's a smart choice for safety: baffled internals minimize sloshing, preventing fuel shifts that upset balance mid-corner. Paired with a quality filter, it delivers clean fuel steadily, contributing to smoother idling and quicker warm-ups.

Track veterans swear by aluminum tanks for their thermal properties, which keep mixtures dense for better combustion efficiency—translating to fewer adjustments and more podiums. Whether prepping for sprints or longer formats, the VKA4010 empowers aggressive driving with reliable capacity.
