Just got my fuel cell

My 20 gallon fuel cell from Fuelcellguy came in tonight. Top notch quality I must say. Good job Mark. For anyone that has one does the gas guage wire from the in cab tank connect to that?

Thanks
Here is a pic. I kept the card board protectors on the vent and supply.

Re: Just got my fuel cell

Looks nice. I want one, but need to save a little more change. What size is the filler tube?

Re: Just got my fuel cell

He certainly does top notch work. I am very pleased with the tank he made for the back of my flatbed. As for the sender, I went with aftermarket gauges and ran all new wiring so I'm afraid I can't be of any help. I did have to run a ground from my gauge directly to the tank to get mine to work.

Re: Just got my fuel cell

How low does it hang down after being installed? Would it scrap on a bagged truck?

I've mocked mine in place. It doesn't hang down any lower than the rear bumper in my setup, so unless you're moving the bumper, doubt you'll have a problem.

I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking.
