Yours is so clean compared to mine, I would consider eating off the inside of your tank. Down here in the south the humidity will ruin anything... However, the coating kit is so cheap that while you have it out, its almost dumb not to treat it.

not a problem. we are all here to help each other. hope yours turns out just as well. Your sig says Fort Collins....cool. I think my truck is from there actually. I always wanted to visit Colorado.

Got my tank put back in the truck and filled with fuel. Truck starts and runs like a champ now. One thing I noticed when fueling the tank from bone dry is that the gauge on the dash, although now functional, is not accurate at all. To check the gauge, I started slowly adding fuel into the tank...

i think it might have said it doesnt fit, because it is discontinued??? because if I look through the fuel system parts manually, by my vin, something similar shows up. in the parts fische, it looks like hose 23091 in all the different versions of the tank. does anyone know how to convert...

I tried my VIN in toyotapartsdeal.com where i got the other stuff, and it said no. I tried "view similar parts" and got no results there either. is your truck the Canadian version?

for those following, or for anyone who has attempted this themselves, I am still trying to locate an oem part number for this hose..... anyone know what it is. connects the threaded output fitting on the fuel pump bracket to the hard line on the frame rail.

this is it ready to go back in the truck.... just needs a little black paint. all efforts were overseen and approved by my shop manager (starting her young)

then it was time to put everything in the tank and say goodnight for the next 30 years. I reccomend putting the sending unit in first, mainly so you can still look through the big hole and see if you got the float pointing the right direction. with the bolt pattern for the sending unit being...

got around to putting this back together...or at least ready to go back in the truck. put on the fuel filter on the bottom of pump using provided safety clip. then assembled the pump to the bracket using the cushion at the base of the bracket, section of fuel hose, and 2 band clamps. In...

Thanks man. my arms and back are killing me......wish I would have thought of the spare tire trick earlier in the process...but I am happy with it. can't wait for that stuff to cure so I can put my truck back together with all the new shiny parts!:clap:.

hey jgrantthevagrant- do you know the part number for this hose? the one that goes from the fuel pump bracket in above picture to the hard line that runs along the frame rail, right? it has two flare nut fittings and a fexible hose, about 8 inches long.... I cant find a part number for it, but...

I was really impressed and happy with it. It looks great. STEP5: now you have to drain out all the excess KBS coating that didnt adhere itself to the walls of the tank. (which in our case is a lot because this kit is for a tank almost 2X the volume of our tanks) The reason you have to get the...

Next was the tank. I poured in the sealant from the KBS kit and bolted my cover plate back on. For this step I wanted to make sure it flowed into all the cracks and seam welds. so I made sure my spare tire was in "4Lo" and slowly rocked this baby back and forth for about an hour. drank a few...

STEP 4: So, the next day I was ready to pour in the sealer. I decided that I also wanted to coat the fuel pump bracket too, since it got pretty roached over the years. So I masked off all of the critical areas including fuel pump ring terminals, and plugged all the openings. Cant coat the...

According to KBS instructions, now the tank has to dry....like really really dry. no moisture what so ever before applying the sealant. So I used some forced air from the compressor until I couldnt see anymore moisture inside the tank. then I let it sit overnight in front of a fan just to be...
