SLO247 1,713 Posted October 6, 2015 Bought an XD ute and the tank has been out already. It has the pickup etc on the rear rather than on the top. Is this correct for a 79 XD or should it be on the top like an XF? It has been on the top in the 80/81 model XD utes I've owned. I suspect this tank is from an XC or earlier as it also has the single wire gauge sender. Anyone know for sure? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FOMOCOHO 882 Posted October 6, 2015 Mine's got about 2 Ton of parts in the tray, lol... (which is why she's on blocks) so not much help sorry. Can you tell anything from underneath or do you have to remove the top cover? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FOMOCOHO 882 Posted October 6, 2015 Not sure if an 8 would be the same as a 6 anyway. I assume your new one is a 6. Where's the photos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Polson 10,214 Posted October 6, 2015 Can you tell anything from underneath or do you have to remove the top cover? Have to remove the top cover on utes. Only thing you can see underneath is the fuel lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted October 7, 2015 Checked the manual. 6 and 8 all the same, should be on the top in an XD. Must be an earlier tank. I have an XF tank and pickup, I'll just have to block the return line. Or find an XD pickup and fit that. Assuming the holes the same size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Polson 10,214 Posted October 7, 2015 Didn't XD have fuel return to the tank? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted October 7, 2015 Nah. I think that started part way through XE. 1 Mr Polson reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
