Fuel Cell Help

They're expensive but I guess it depends on how much value you put on your life. I bought one many years when they were much cheaper. It is supposed to be a direct swap for the original steel tank.
Due to family problems and stuff I haven't installed it yet so I can't help you there.

Yeah I planned on doing a 12 gallon sumped Fuel cell
Is that the one that sits in the spare tire well? I have the 22 gallon that goes in place where the stock tank is mounted under the car. It uses all the factory fill tube and pump / sender.Originally Posted by mwitham87
If nothing else I pick up an additional 6 gallons of capacity / more miles to empty cruising range.

Safety wise, it's not a bad idea. Since the gas tank sits right behind the rear bumper and is not in front of the rear axle like newer car designs.
yes it is you just have to cut a hole in the floor for the sump as well as the vent tubeIs that the one that sits in the spare tire well? I have the 22 gallon that goes in place where the stock tank is mounted under the car. It uses all the factory fill tube and pump / sender.

You could adapt a safety switch into pump harness or inertia switch if electric pump is used you could even be creative and adapt a OEM unit from a salvage yard
