Dual tanks in my CJ-5 - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Now that I have found an underseat tank for my CJ-5 I had a few questions..

I know how to hook it up and all that, I am going to use a GM electric tank swticher with a GM toggle dash mount, I have an electronic fuel pump so that will be fine..

one of my question is sending units,

Does anyone know the resistance and voltage output of a 11 gallon underseat sending unit and a 15 gallon sending unit? Can this be adapted to use the same fuel gauge?

My second question is filler neck/hose.

The tank has a filler on it, was there a rubber hose that went between it and the body or was it a direct connection..

My third question is does anyone know where I can get a fuel inlet for a CJ5 underseat tank?

Man WP, getting all fancy with "REAL" fuel tanks.

I prefer the boat tank method.

hahaha Well If I had a cj-8 then I would do a fuel cell, but since I drive this thing alot of places I like to keep my storage space..

Why put in a fuel cell in a Cj-8. Hell I have a 33 gallon gas tank, don't need any additional cans now.
