The Wacker Neuson 5100029311 is a genuine OEM Fuel Tank designed for VP1135A, VP1135Aw, and VP1030A single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this tank matches the original component in fit, form, and function — no guesswork required when ordering. It covers multiple VP-series configurations, including US-market variants of the VP1135A and VP1135Aw. If your vibratory plate compactor is running lean on fuel delivery or showing signs of tank damage, part number 5100029311 is the correct OEM replacement to restore full operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specifications, ensuring the tank walls, fittings, and mounting points match the original exactly.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Designed to seat and mount identically to the factory tank on VP-series plates, with all fuel line and mounting connections aligning to original positions.
- Broad VP-Series Fitment: — Compatible with VP1135A, VP1135Aw, VP1030A, and VP1030Aw single-direction vibratory plate compactors, including US-market configurations.
- Fuel System Integrity: — A sound fuel tank maintains consistent fuel supply to the engine, preventing lean-running conditions, fuel starvation, and premature carburetor wear caused by a cracked or degraded tank.
- Fuel Containment Safety: — A properly sealed OEM tank prevents fuel leaks that can create fire hazards on the worksite and lead to regulatory non-compliance on occupied or enclosed job areas.
The fuel tank serves as the primary reservoir that stores and supplies gasoline to the engine of the vibratory plate compactor. It feeds fuel at a controlled rate to the carburetor, which then meters it into the combustion cycle to keep the engine running at the power level needed to drive the exciter mechanism. When a fuel tank cracks, warps, or develops a leaking seam or fitting, the result is fuel loss, inconsistent engine performance, or a complete failure to start — all of which bring compaction work to a halt and introduce a serious safety risk from exposed fuel near hot engine components.
