Twin 65l tanks in LN106 dual cab

Post by roadrunner »

Well, I've picked up my second standard hilux tank so over the next week I'll be fitting it, but need a bit of info to point me in the right direction.

The actual mounting doesn't pose a problem but some advice on how or where to deliver the fuel would be great.

First Q - Transfer from the second tank to the main one by way of a dash switch, or deliver from the second tank to the fuel filter, again controlled by a dash switch?

Second Q - Use standard pick up or an external one?

Third Q - Would using another vehicles sub-tank change over setup be better / easier ie 80 series or 75 series?

Will be fitting a standard Hilux fuel guage in the blank slot above the existing one so will use all of the standard hilux sender stuff.

The big query is the exhaust... if anybody has already done this, what is the best way to re-route the exhaust, bearing in mind I still have to fit sliders :?

Sorry for the long post, I like as much info as I can get before I start things !

Cheers

try and get the system out of a prado- basicly you have a pair of solenoids under the passengers seat (under the truck) and theres duplicate lines leading back to each tank, and one line forward to the filter....


Prado returns fuel to the aux tank too, so it forces you to use it.

are you sure your going to be able to use dual tanks, i know the prado has a pump in each tank to allow the system to work properly.
