We were on to fitting the fuel tank next but before we could fit it we had to first prepare the tank. As advised in the manual, firstly we lined the sides of the tank that would sit against the rear bulk head and the boot floor with neoprene rubber to cushion the tank against the body. We also did the same with the inside of the 2 angled brackets that would secure the tank in place.

Next we fitted the fuel sender unit in the correct position at the top of the tank. Mark actually had to have this adjusted and welded a few weeks ago to make it shorter to suit the depth of our tank. We also fitted the fuel line banjo and breather banjo to the tank at this point.
