I don't have those issues by using manual valves.

I have a collection of failed electric fuel valves and I will NEVER use an electric fuel valve again.


I prefer multiple seperate tanks.

One big reason why being that, should one tank get a hole knocked in it, for whatever reason, I still have two other un-damaged tanks to keep traveling on.


If you are way out in no-where-land and something in the road kicks up and punctures your only fuel-tank, you are not going to get far.

 

ake a look at this. I have a friend that hasused one for a couple of yeard over the road.

I found, and cleaned the vent on top of the tank...I still had to vent the fuel cap as well. Other wise nothing would flow into the tank. I'm eventually going to fix a vent to a switch in the cab so that when I switch the fuel valve open a vent comes open also.

Thanks, Tony

 

I guess everyone has there own way of doin things for different reasons. On an ole Chevy I had dual tanks with an manual valve I mounted in the floor under my legs. It work just fine.
This time I put in a transfer tank and pump the fuel from the 90gal tank into the truck tank when needed. I use a pump and nozel like at the fuel pump. Even with towing I find I need a break before I run out of fuel anyway. The only disadvantage is the tank in the bed. Since the truck is used for towing it really isn't a problem. I am to understand transfering fuel from a tank in the bed to the truck tank is illegal anyway either gravity or by pump. I would check it out before I did it. I do have a couple of buddies that do it but check it out first.
