I have been researching an auxiliary fuel tank for a gas powered F-350 for increased range. I had a Aux tank in a 70's model pickup that was in the bed and I had a valve that switched from the main tank over to the Aux with no issues. With the fuel pumps and return lines there is more to it today. All the systems I have seen for an Aux tank is for diesel only. There are some states that have laws against gasoline aux tanks and I haven't been able to find a transfer kit or tank switch kit for gasoline. There are plenty for diesel as it is not affected by the state laws.
The way to get around the Aux tank laws is with a transfer tank but you have to have a pump and nozzle to fill the main tank. Another option is to remove the factory tank and replace it with a larger tank. Both of these workarounds are not appealing because of the transfer process or the cost of a replacement tank.
Good luck with the endeavor. Is there a chance that a 50 state DOT approved gasoline transfer kit or tank switch kit could also be offered?
There will be two options I see viable for 90-11 Ford Rangers. I realize my initial post stated it but it should be clarified better. There will be a direct replacement fuel tank, Gasoline, taking you from either a 17 or 21 gallon tank to a 32-34gal tank is the known goal.
A second option would be an AUX tank that works by removing the spare tire carrier and providing extra fuel tank.
For the 2019+, it will likely be only a larger capacity main tank in the same 30-34gal range would be the goal.
Which "State Law" are you referring to?
And are you specifically looking for an AUX tank for added fuel or a replacement tank? For replacement tanks there are options especially for more fuel whether gas or Diesel, AUX tanks depends on the application but there are options.
If you want, let me know your F-350 information and what you're looking to do and I may have some options for you to consider in replacement tanks or AUX Tanks
