ABSTRACT:
A fuel oil tank is comprised of a sealed reservoir having side walls, a top and bottom walls, and opposed end walls. A closable inlet port is provided to admit fuel oil in the reservoir. An outlet port is provided in the bottom wall and is adapted to receive a coupling to connect a feed pipe to supply fuel oil to a remote apparatus. The bottom wall has an evacuation channel formed in a lowermost part thereof to direct fuel oil from the lowermost part of the tank to the outlet port which is located in a base of the evacuation channel whereby any liquid in the fuel oil which is heavier than the fuel oil will be channeled to the outlet port and not accumulate in the lowermost part of the bottom wall of the tank where it would inhibit the formation of rust in the reservoir.
