If they say it does not fit it will not fit.
Size and shape of tanks may bee different.
Keep looking some place may have one that will fit.
On used the salvage yards have interchange books.
Have them look it up.
13 and 20 gal tanks may have different fuel pump hangers and different straps/hangers.
When replacing tank you may need new hangers or straps as a lot of them are rusted bad.
