RPM Fuel Tanks Adelaide - GU Patrol

Standard GQ 95ltr tanks are $20 from LPG fitting places. ;) GU's with subtanks already have pump and all, but the 95ltr wont fit where sub is.

So havent priced, but what are LRA etc subtanks worth compared?

LRA's replacement sub tanks are about $800 supply only last time I checked.

for $200 I'd buy something known if you intend to do remote travel ;)

and Longrangers are certified to be ADR compliant.

Doesn"t matter whether a GU is petrol or diesel, they have the same external pump set up, just had the sub pump die on my 3lt and replaced it with a second hand one from a 4.5 lt petrol at 20% of the cost of a new one.

yeah, that was what I thought too re: the external pumps.

They do not have the same setup
A diesel is on the outside of the tank at the front.
A petrol has it on the inside of the tank mounted to the bottom.

And a brand new petrol doesn't come with a sub tank anymore!

Moggs,
Couldn't you ask Mark Sanders if he would mind putting you in touch with some of his satisfied clients so you could get their testimonial? He could contact his client/s and seek their permission to give their contact details to you.
I've done that before myself (ie: been the "satisfied client" who has consented to be contacted by a prospective buyer......it puts you in good stead with the manufacturer if you should need any warranty work done or if you wish to buy any more gear in the future.....they will bend over backwards to keep you happy).

yep, that is what I am going to do. If he can't come up with anyone for me to speak with then that speaks volumes in itself.

Find out if they are a coated steel.

Hot rolled steel will rust.
Briteform will rust.
Cold rolled will rust.

Zinc coated (zinc anneal or zinc seal) will be OK with petrol, but the zinc will be gone after about 4 years on a diesel ( where does it go?).

Aluminised steel is not made by BHP but is a better option as the thin aluminium coating is suitable for all fuel including the new blended stuff and is corrosion resistant.

I Also ask what sort of warranty you have

Hey Moggs, where are u going that u need that much diesel? We carried 60l on the roof for the Simmo and I reckon that was overkill, was only gonna fill it at Birdsville and use it ASAP.

$600 isnt too bad though.
