    Nice one Liam! Just to note, when you said 100kg in the tank at 100L it was actually about 84kg. Diesel has a density of approximately 0.84kg/L, and even less for petrol.

      This is also why planes and large diesel tanks tend to have water-drain valves at the bottom. Water sinks under the fuel, and you want to keep that water out of the sump as much as possible.

      No, he’s right. Margins are super slim on fuel for the actual fuel stations. That’s not counting the ones that gouge prices like near airports or when the owner has a monopoly of the area. They make money off people going in and buying snacks and other overpriced goods from the convenience store. So they’d rather have more customers buying small amounts of fuel than less customers buying large volumes of fuel.

    Very cool to see a DYI welded aluminum fuel tank! Adding a second fuel tank is one of the better ideas for any 4x4. I miss my 1989 Nissan D21 which had a 1000 mile (1610km) driving range (highway) due to a 25 gallon (95L) auxiliary tank and a transfer pump. I'd run it from SE Arizona into central California before the main, original tank ran dry and the engine sputtered. Hit the switch on the transfer pump and in a few seconds I'd be cruising again while the fuel gauge just climbed back up. That was a great feeling. Take that to long 4x4 trips and SAR missions, I'd see other folks emptying fuel cans into their tanks, carrying those cans in all sorts of mounts or strapping them down, taking up space that could be better used.

Using the OEM fual transfer system gives me dual gauges in the dash but the ranges are wrong since it only goes up to two 50 gallon tanks. but a RAM 3500 Dually is quite a bit larger than your Ute.

      @@thenthson it depends on the fuel station. a standard fuel island is around 8-10gpm, where a truck stop can flow up to 60gpm. the truck stops are harder to use in the internal tank since it can fill too fast. but at that, I can fill in as little as 4-5 min, or as long as 20 minutes. The bigger issue is actually having to rerun cards on the slower pumps since they are usually limited to $100-$150 per run :D

    @leonkane8240 9 місяців тому

    Awesome video. @ one point I thought building my own tank was beyond me so this kind of give me the confidence that I can with out the leaks fires & explosions.
    What gauge aluminum did you use?
    What was the dry weight of your tank?
    My understanding is a custom tank should be engineering certified?
    Over the last 6 months I have been buying the bits & pieces to build my own tank too. I have some experience welding but have not yet launched into welding Aluminum, but will be doing so soon.
    A few years ago I bought a new muilti process welder, which I think is a great type of welder to start with for a beginner. It is not my 1st welder though. I am yet to buy the gear for it that will allow me to Tig. Looking forward to that.
    I don't have the advantage of having a "Jeff" to guide me, so I thought doing my project in ally might be too much of a steep learning curve for where my skills are @ currently.
    So I chose to do my tank in stainless with mig. I get the weight issue & ideally I would want an ally tank for the weight savings.
    With mig I will probably be testing the tank for leaks & going back to plugging those leaks & repeating that process before it is hopefully liquid tight. I would probably be inclined to do that with ally too, though I am far from expert on the subject.
    I will be going to a local radiator repairer to pressure test my tank to give added piece of mind. @ Fabrication you might not have a leak but down the road leaks might form more so with mig & if you are not a total jedi welder, which I am not.
    I question what Jeff said about steel being up to 3 times more heavier because with steel you can go thinner gauge for the same comparable strength . Of course mass for equal mass stainless steel is heavier but I would of thought not 3 times heavier given the smaller gauge of steel required to achieve the same strength.
    Bending stainless is harder but I might go to Jeff for that.
    My tank will be a more complicated shape, hopefully not a famous last statement, so I bought some plastic corflute sheet (you can buy it @ Bunnings though I think it is expensive there) to make a mock up template of the tank which will help in making sure it all fits in nice & I get the maximum capacity I am after from the under tray space.
    I will also be having a go @ building my own water tank as well soon, But I believe stainless is the best material to store water, it will not oxidize the inside of the tank & there are concerns that aluminum is not molecularly stable to store water safely, that particles of aluminum will leach into water.

    Gas stations really hate me lol. On my flatbed it sometimes just won’t fill because of the filler neck angle, and my Pontiac has the filler neck behind the license plate with a locking gas cap. I’m in NJ where we can’t legally fill our cars on our own, but the attendants know me and let me do it myself

      You can’t legally do it yourself? Why not?

    31 spare gallons at roughly 221lbs or just over 100 kilo... betting you can feel when that tank is full... I am looking to get the extended range tank for my US Tacoma. 32 gallons vs the factory 21 gallon tank. means less jerry cans to carry in the bed.

    My dad is a welding specialist and I got autism.. I'm pretty dam good at soldering and to the point of the tiny solders.. And I'm the type if someone shows me it once I can do it.. So He said there is no way you can just tig weld.. So I started me on stainless steel and pretty thin stuff and not doing beads.. He started on the harder joins to give me a test if I can do it first time.. He showed me how to start the machine and told me everything there was to learn.. then I watched.. then he turned the machine off and said now you do it.. So I did exactly what he did and he was like omg how is that possible you did it as good as some the pro's I know.. hehe.. Now I can tig weld on my own and now what amps to use, how to sharpen the tungsten, and honestly I think stainless is a bit harder due to the metal being slower to get the pooling compared to alloy.. Going from SS to alloy was a joke.. Alloy was soooo much more easier. But now I want to see if I can make a fuel tank fto replace my 90L in my 90 series prado
