I have a long
ranger second tank on my GQ nissan patrol.
After driving for a while one of my tanks 'implode' causing a massive bang under the car. A few hours after driving the bang appears again.
It's fairly obvious that the 'breathing' of one of the tanks during the fuel transfer (auto suction and not a 12v pump) is blocked in some way to keep the pressure ok whilst the fuel is moving between the tanks.
my question is two fold:
a) which tank is breathing (or in the case not) and,
b) which hose do I then need to
check for blockage?
I've looked underneath and there are hoses all over the place so I don't want to start unplugging them all when I don't know what I'm doing.
Cheers,
