Title: fitting a td5 fuel tank
Post by: Mutz on November 29, 2009, 11:00:39

Hi all, im sure ive seen a thread relating to fitting a TD5 tank to a 300tdi 90.

Any one done this and what are the pros or cons of converting?

Obviously would have to remove mechanical pump, but what about wiring and pipework for the td5 tank?

Pics would be a bonus as im sure i read you have to make new fixing brackets

I have a td5 tub so filler not a problem
