my kit is from 2000 as well, and i asked the factory (before the merger)
back in 2008 if my tank fell into the post non fluorinated time frame, and
they
responded this after i indicated the desire to purchase a new fluorinated
tank. so based on what i was told i would believe yours should be ok. If its
not
much cost involved the second treatment would probably be a good investment.

  Would anyone know which it is?  (I think I had heard LDPE)

  I am asking because I am about to spend some money getting my still
uninstalled tank Fluorinated or Re-Fluorinated - since I cannot be sure to
what level it was done by the Europa factory (if it was done at all back in
2000) and I wish to avoid the swelling and cracking problems some are seeing
in service.

  I am choosing to Fluorinate to the same level (AL) as the auto industry
(by Fluoro-Seal International LP)

  Thanks in advance,
