Tryling to add a auxillary fuel tank to a j-20. So far, I've been to Advanced Auto Parts, Autozone, and Savage and all they had was parts that I would need to put together to make it work. Is there any one who makes a kit to do the valving and sending unit switch over.

I have dual tanks ordered by the original owner and contracted by the local jeep dealer to have Arizona Spring in Tucson do the job. You might call a similar job shop and pick their brain.

The one I have has six fuel lines on it. There’s one from each tank. One each goes back to each tank. One each goes forward to the engine. Then there’s a seventh line that comes out of the valve body a couple inches and hangs straight down. I believe this one is a valve failure orifice that leaks if the valves go bad. Like a fuel pump or water pump has if the diaphragm or bearing seal goes out. I’m not really sure.

I’ll try and see if I can find a number on it this weekend. :cool:
