mihela816 Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Is it possible to swap one of the plastic gas tanks from second-gens into a first gen car? Will it fit? If so, are there any issues with fuel lines, pump, durability, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 I believe with 2nd gen you can access the fuel filter from the trunk. I don't think the tanks are interchangeable but it would be interesting to know if it would be possible to modify the car so it would fit...

mfewtrail Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 The tanks appear to be very close(if not the same) in physical size, so you could probably swap one without too much trouble if they are actually close in size and the filler neck, etc. is in nearly the same place.

Pump u mean, i know some cars have a trap door to get to the fuel pump, wich would have been VERY nice if we got one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihela816 Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Well obviously adding in a different tank isn't magically going to make a trunk acess. However if we wanted to we could just cut a hole and install one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Yeah the second gens have a door for the fuel pump. Works out really well when I helped my friend replace his sender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
