I have no idea what a model 71 is.  Is it relatively new ? - old ?  - very
old ?  Is it a plastic tank or metal ?  And are you saying the dealer won't
order it for you or you are just looking for cheap ?

 If you go to my blog http://360.yahoo.com/srgntbilko  you will see a link at
the top of the page for an "Old-Time Tractor Club".  Why don't you take a
look at that and see if there is one in your area.  Ours has a flea market
every year and also an auction every year.  Stuff like that always shows up.

Just did a little research and my stuff only shows a Model 71 built from
1965 to 1967.  So I doubt wether yours is a 1971.
I have two Model 128's which were built from 1971- to 1974.  Mine are 12 hp
with relatively big metal gas tanks.  I had to blast the one out when I
bought the tractor about 5 years ago.  Can you recondition yours ?  If not I
would just look for any salvage tank that would fit.
