Gday and welcome to Tomo’s tune ups

On this episode, Tomo demonstrates how to upgrade your standard fuel tank to a long range fuel tank in a classic mini. With little to no modification necessary, this is a perfect upgrade for those wanting to increase their driving time without having to refuel as often. This will allow approx 150km more distance compared to a standard tank (this is an estimate only given the mileage and performance work carried out to my mini)

Few tips to adhere to whilst doing this job:

1. DO NOT SMOKE OR HAVE OPEN FLAMES AROUND FUEL TANK !!
2. Do this in a well ventilated area NOT in an enclosed area!
3. Drain fuel tank before hand to minimize spillage and prevent unwanted strain on your back upon removal
4. Renew fuel filter when upgrading fuel tank as filters are cheap to renew
5. Renew rubber fuel line from fuel tank to filter and from filter to steel fuel pipe
6. Fit new rubber breather pipe from fuel tank to engine to ensure fuel tank is vented properly and prevent excessive fume build up in enclosed area
7. Renew fuel tank sender o’ring, gasket between fuel tank and body along with rubber gasket on outside of body supporting fuel neck.
