259019 - Miller Fuel Tank Replacement Kit 259019

Genuine Miller 259019 Field Fuel Tank Kit

The Miller 259019 Kit is a comprehensive Field Fuel Tank replacement designed to service specific Miller engine-driven welding machines. As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) component, this kit is engineered to meet the exact specifications of the original fuel systems found in Miller equipment. It serves as the direct functional replacement for several discontinued or obsolete part numbers, specifically 218087, 189245, and 257007. By consolidating these legacy parts into a single updated field kit, Miller ensures that service technicians and equipment owners have access to a reliable solution for maintaining the fuel integrity of their industrial assets.

Fuel system components in engine-driven welders are subjected to harsh operating environments, including vibration, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to various hydrocarbons. Over time, these factors can lead to material fatigue, cracking, or degradation of the tank structure. The Miller 259019 is manufactured from high-grade, fuel-resistant materials designed to resist permeation and structural failure. Installing a genuine OEM tank guarantees that mounting points, fuel line connections, and filler neck geometries align perfectly with the machine's chassis and body panels, eliminating the need for field modifications often required by universal aftermarket tanks.

This kit is designated as a "Field Kit," implying it contains the necessary elements to perform a tank swap in a maintenance shop or field environment. Maintaining the integrity of the fuel storage system is critical not only for the operation of the generator but also for environmental compliance and safety. Leaking fuel presents a significant fire hazard and environmental risk. This replacement part restores the machine to factory safety standards. When servicing older equipment where the original part number (such as 218087) is listed in the manual, the 259019 is the correct, manufacturer-authorized supersession.

For procurement and inventory management, this item is packaged as a single unit. It is essential to verify the machine's serial number against Miller's parts breakdown to confirm compatibility, as fuel tank designs can vary significantly between different series and model years of Bobcats, Trailblazers, or Big Blue welders. This part ensures that your capital equipment remains operational and safe, extending the service life of your Miller welding generator.
