Got my fuel cell installed today.

Cool, you even have an extra port for your buddies to use to steal gas out of

very nice, are you going to put a gusset on the fuel line leaving the tank and going threw the bed?

 

[clemson55]

I dont know if I'm going to or not. Probably just wrap a piece of hose insulation on it. I cleaned the hole up really well though so it wouldnt damage the hose.

Sweet, looks good. Looks like you did'nt need the return line arter all?

 

[clemson55]

Yeah I cant find anywhere that would have extra gas for a return. So I'm just gonna plug it. If fuel starts running out somewhere and needs to go back to the tank then I'll put in a return.

Is that a half-strap welded to the bed such that putting the seat down allows the tank to slide out?

If there is no return line and you are still running a mechanical pump there may be an issue with vapor lock on hot days. Will just have to wait and see. If you later switch to an electric pump then placing a regulator after the pump will allow you to install a return line.

Don't do too much wheeling before putting a gusset on the bed. It WILL eat through the line in time.

Enjoy!

Yeah when you put the seat down you can remove the tank. Yes I am still running the mechanical pump. I plan on putting in an electric at some point. It would be easy to run a line back to the other outlet if need be.
