Housing X9042REPRO
$255.26
The Tank Housing (part# X9042REPRO) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the recovery and solution tank assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the main moulded tank shell that forms the machine’s solution and recovery reservoirs.
What the Tank Housing does
The Tank Housing is the structural rotomoulded body of the extractor. It forms both reservoirs, carries the dome and lid openings, and takes the mounting loads for the vacuum motor, pump and handle. Every other tank part in this section fastens to or seals against it, which is why it is the most consequential single component in the assembly.
When to replace the Tank Housing (X9042REPRO)
Replace it when the shell is cracked through, when a mounting boss has pulled out, or when a seam weeps solution under pressure. Hairline cracks around the dome opening are the usual failure and they spread — a housing that seeps when full will not recover with sealant and should be changed before it splits in service.
Tank Housing X9042REPRO — fitment and installation notes
This is a major component and a full teardown: the vacuum motor, pump, dome, standpipe and all plumbing transfer to the new shell. Note that the REPRO suffix denotes the current reproduction moulding, which is the correct part to order for this machine today. Tacony builds the Tornado Marathon SE 900 and the Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S on a single machine platform, so this component carries across both brands rather than belonging to either one. It is a shared Tacony component and may fit additional models beyond those listed — call us and we will confirm against your serial number.

- Tornado Marathon SE 900 — Model 98170
- Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S
- Powr-Flite PFX900SG
