Nice one tuskar :)

Think i found the problem to the footwell, looks like where the arch meets the bulkhead is rotted i think (under the washer bottle) Ill have a closer look at the sunroof later

Any ideas why my passenger footwell is getting soaked in the rain while parked up and also all around the edge of the roof inside Cant really see on the picture but its the section below the handles and all along both sides, its dry around the sunroof

Cheers mikey. Why would fuel be returning to the tank?

Apparently not... Can somebody tell me what the other pipe is for coming out from the sender unit. Theres the one with the filter on it, then theres another. Both go down through the boot floor and towards the front? Im now thinking about using something as a tank and not bothering with the...

Hmmm, i cant fill up from outside (yet) still need to make some adjustments for that. Apparently the tanks out of lotus's fit in the back behind the seats, straight swap but ya fuel gauge is backwards so empty means full n full means empty lol

There is no way id fit mine like that as its had more chopped off. What they like for MOT's like this?

Doesnt matter about pics now ive sorted it now by putting it sideways on the right hand side ontop of the arch and built a box under it to sit on :)

So that link i posted in post #7 with the marine tank... Would that be a straight swap?... It just has a float and sender unit in it

Yeh that would really help, so i can picture it better. How much was chopped off yours?

Cheers robbh ill do some measuring tomorrow. If its too big does any of you know if this could be a straight swap? http://bit.ly/1cCesRN And also.... Is the pump likely to be inside my disco tank or outside of it under the boxing somewhere?

No i dont mean tip it on its side lol. I mean spin it 90 degrees. I duno if its square or not thats why i need the dimensions to see if it will fit alongside the smaller one of the 2 back seats

Does anybody have a disco 1 fuel tank laying around that can tell me the outer dimensions of it?? I have just got a bobtailed disco and the fuel tank is in the back and all boxed in. I want to know (before i take it all apart) if i can remove all the wooden boxing and fit the tank sideways and...

Ill have to have a go at doing some more measurements i guess... Try and determine if it is bent or not
