Doric 4x4 - Fuel Tank

  
 ** 
 

This is a description of a petrol tank suitable for a 3.5/3.9 V8 Range Rover. The scale is not accurate but the measurements need to be precise as it fits in the rear tub behind the bulk head with a filler into the left hand side upper body.

 

The diagrams below show the size of tank.

 

 


Looking down on the top of the tank there needs to be 5 holes cut from left to right: -

 

  1. Anywhere top left – Denoted by an X on the diagram. A ½ inch OD, right-angled pipe pointing in the direction of the arrow.

  1. Upper Left Side – Filler pipe.- 45mm in diameter

  1. In the centre (vertically on diagram) - Fuel Pump Mounting –The centre needs to be 45mm with the outer at least 81mm.

  1. Far enough away to take a series pump – details see series sender unit for A mm and B mm.

  1. Anywhere top right – Denoted by a Y on the diagram. A 8mm OD, right-angled pipe pointing in the direction of the arrow.

 

Below is the side view of the tank. This shows how the 45mm OD filler pipe should raise up to take a 45mm pipe with a hose clip.
