Gas Tanks - FJ40/45

Click for Replica vs OE - Images
A new tank gives Peace of Mind! Don't attempt risky repairs on a leaky, rusty, old gas tank when a new OE quality CCOT replacement gas tank is so affordable.
When installing a new CCOT Replica Tank, Toyota Tank or Poly Tank, make sure you first rinse new tank clear of debris before installing. Also, new gas filter and new hoses are highly recommended to avoid fuel line contamination of rust and scale feeding through old fuel system.
Tanks install using existing original sending unit, filler neck and hardware.

Installation Tip: Do not over tighten gas sending unit to tank or leak will occur. If used with a Weber Carburetor then Line D (Return Line) will need to be closed off. Lines from the fuel separator to the charcoal canister and then to the intake manifold must be properly connected or tank may expand due to pressure and cause leaks.

Set the air pressure regulator at some thing below 10 PSI, the D.O.T. standard is 3 PSI.
With all the lines connected and the tank at least half empty blow air into the filler hose with a rag stuffed around the air blower to create a seal.
Observe where the air is coming out.
