Purpose and function in the fuel system

The presented fuel tank has been designed to work with diesel-powered engines, ensuring the appropriate conditions for a Diesel supply system. The tank's construction is adapted for installation in the vehicle's chassis, taking into account the routing of lines and factory mounts, which promotes tightness and proper fuel circulation.

A working capacity of 60 liters allows for comfortable vehicle operation in both urban and extra-urban cycles, reducing the frequency of refueling and stabilizing the operation of the fuel pump and other system components.

Construction, color, and fitment

The tank is distinguished by its Amethystgrau Metallic - A09 finish, which is important when selecting parts according to factory specifications. This color scheme facilitates component identification during service, as well as when comparing it with an existing element in the vehicle.

As a part from the Fuel tanks and filler pipes group, the tank is adapted to work with filler pipes and venting, which is significant for proper refueling, venting, and maintaining the correct pressure in the system. The design provides spaces for factory mounts, which promotes stable seating and vibration reduction while driving.

Condition, application, and benefits of installation

The offered item is in used condition, which provides an attractive cost solution while maintaining original geometry and vehicle fitment. Choosing such a tank is particularly beneficial in situations where the previous tank has suffered mechanical damage, corrosion, or deformation affecting the tightness and operation of the fuel system.

The main advantages of installation include:

• maintaining factory fitment to the body and chassis structure,
• compatibility with the Diesel fuel system,
• the ability to restore proper operation of the supply system after damage to the previous tank,
• optimal cost-to-functionality ratio due to the use of a used part.

Selection based on technical parameters and fuel system

When selecting a fuel tank, it is crucial to pay attention to the fuel type, capacity, and compatibility with the mounting system and line routing in a specific vehicle model. This fuel tank is intended for diesel-powered systems, therefore its use in other fuel configurations is not recommended.

To better understand the role of the tank in the entire supply path, how it works with the pump, filters, and injectors, as well as the principles of diagnostics and operation, it is worth reading the article: Fuel system – injectors, pumps, and fuel tank: maintenance and regeneration. This will allow you to consciously plan the repair and avoid common installation errors.
