just curious wat everyone does with their fuel system in a datsun 1200 ute.....
its currently sitting in a tool box in the back tray, just wondering what everyone else does

Most blokes with ute's have a R31 tank, mounted behind the diff.

R31 tank has a surge tank inbuilt.

i just run the standard ute fuel tank. using a new pump (old one #### itsself). pumping to the surge in the tray. i havnt got it covered yet. but it got passed by the blueplater and roadworthy so im not TOO fussed on it.. system works well. but doesnt last long when givin it abit of a floggin

but no car will keep petrol when flogging it.. so im also staying with the standard ute tank and using a new bosch pump and surge tank

yeh im keeping the standard fuel tank
but running lines to my pre-pump, surge tank, pump and filter. they all sit on top of the tray i guess

my daily ute has a modded ute tank with a vl fuel pump mounted behind the driver out side the cabbin under the tray hope you have a loudish sterio to cover the buzz buzz
but my project ute has the r31 tank fitted at the back (full tank also helps to keep weight over the back wheels and you dont have to pull into every 2nd servo to fill up again) cheers wayne

Ill be using a fuell cell in the back.. feeding a surge tank and a vl turbo/ bosch 044 to feed the rail.. will be plenty for what i want..

This is the fuel system im using. it consists of a carter lift pump from the tank to the surge.A bosch motorsport feeding the rail and then return to the surge then the tank.

Cheers

thats a nice looking setup mat... wardy. i thought that fuel cells were illegal for street use in utes? i may be wrong. thats what i wanted to do but i was advised against it.

Does that Carter sit higher than the fuel tank?

I ask as I'm keen to get a lo pressure fuel pump to sit on the floor of my coupe - that can handle being above the level of the fuel tank.
