Sill Tanks set up

[Johnty67rangie]

Hi guys,
I am about to install second hand sill tanks into my rangie. The tanks are the fill through the floor type with a fuel outlet and what I expect is a breather hose outlet. Does any one know how to set up the fuel pipes and breather locations. Is it best to feed to current aux tank (cars on gas) or another method? Like wise with the breather where is the best place to send it?
Any help appreciated,
John

I installed a pair to my old rangie that was on gas, i used 2 boat plastic screw in bungs for cap access in the floor and a 2 way electric fuel solenoid with a switch on the steering column shroud to select between tanks. The breathers i joined with a T piece and connected them to the breather tank that is in the rear 1/4 panel . If you have another tank in the rear 1/4 you can just set it up to pump fuel into that from the sill tanks.

How did you join the fuel line from the sill tanks into the existng? .

easy way i did, was tap the breather into existing tank breather, and with the outlet on the new tank run it to a inline pump and t it into the filler neck of your existing tank, u know when the aux is empty due to the fuel pump noise, and u can gauge from your existing tank then how much u have pumped across, cheap and easy, well on a defender anyways....
