    Disco 1 fuel tank dimensions???

    At a guess without looking at it I would say one is a feed and one is a return. See if there is any arrows on the sender at the fuel line joins. Someone else may correct me!

    Disco 1 fuel tank dimensions???

    Glad you sorted it :)....... but as I have taken the pics thought I may as well share them anyway, just in case anyone else is interested! Not had chance to fix the filler in place yet! like I say guess the amount that's been cut off the back would make a bit of a difference.

    Disco 1 fuel tank dimensions???

    If its any help, I have the original tank in my bobtailed disco with the one single seat in. Don't get me wrong it's a tight fit! I got the filler up where the rear window was.
