I have been looking for a way to add an extra fuel tank to my truck without using a tank on top of the flat bed. It had me thinking that maybe I could add another tank switch so that I could switch incab from one tank to another just like factory but have 3 tanks to choose from instead of 2.
I have removed the rear tank a long time ago in favor of a round saddle mount style tank from an old grain truck which is mounted to the passenger side frame behind the cab. I have been looking for a match for the drivers side with no luck so far.
What if I use both factory fuel tanks and control them with the factory tank switch but splice in a wye with a check valve so I can supply my engine from the round tank also?
I have the extra tank switch and most of the plastic lines from a donor truck so it wouldnt be like I was buying all the extra stuff. I would only need the wye and another dash mounted switch and wiring set.
What do you think? Can it be done? Should I get over it? Or find another round tank?
Thanks, Eric
