79 Series sub fuel tank question

Post by OISTA »

Gday,

Just bought a 2003 79 series diesel ute. My question is when you've used the main fuel tank and switch to sub tank (button in dash), is the fuel sourced for the 2nd tank directly to the injector pump. Or is it pumped into the main fuel tank and dispensed from there?

Cheers

pretty sure comes straight from your second tank, thier should be a soilernoid in your supply fuel line which switches between the 2 tanks

Cheers mate, I'll have a look. The reason I ask is the old boy's 80 series petrol drains sub into main, while the old lux i had used to draw from either. Currently trying to work out if transfer is farked or just drawing off second tank.

As above, draws straight from the rear tank into the motor.

The diesel 80 and 75/79 series take fuel from the tank

the petrol 80 is different

do a search you will find lots of good info on this.
