Title: Extra gas tank / reserve
Post by: terry and karen conkle on October 29, 2004, 09:21:32 PM
Those of you who have an extra gas tank on your Clipper:  What kind of hoses were used for plumbing from the filler tube to the second tank?  I found that mine is PVC pipe as used for water, which I think is not a good idea.  There is a maze of hoses, lines, filters,  pumps, wires, inlets, outlets and God knows what.  Our first trip to the gas station to fill up resulted in either a leak or an overflow from under the vehicle onto the pavement.  Back home we go!  Saturday morning will be reserved for upside down viewing, tracking and tracing, beginnings and endings, front to rear, side to side, top to bottom.  UGH!
