Does the GU ute have drainable tanks or do I need to remove them to drain them?


Cheers.

U can only drain the sub (front) tank. Jump under and you'll see the drain bung in the bash plate. 12mm spanner or socket is needed.

The pick up is in the main tank and draws from the bottom of the tank, the filter gets most of that, but u can pull them out if u want wouldn't hurt

just into a cab off chasis rebuilt - the rear tank is not too hard to remove, the rear drivers side inner guard gets at the hoses, a floor jack and six bolts gets the tank - just make sure it is basically empty. Tip the tank upside down and use the return inlet to drain.
