sick work willis!!!!!

 

Game plan here. You come to the meet this Saturday and a bunch of us mob to Sycamore right after. Perfect.

 

what you talkin bout willis?

sorry had to

and beautiful work

 

Damn. Not that is an off road race truck! :bravo:

Nice touch using the factory fuel bowl/sending unit, to work in the Jaz tank.

 

damn

 

Fuck yes.

 

it runs.. no check engine light so it should pass smog with the fuel cell.

 

Nice work Willis!

 

What did you guys do with the charcoal canister? Is it still attached? I think I see it in between the cab and the fuel cell.

 

Yep its between the cab and cell.

 

Thanks mate. I've been pondering the idea of putting in an ATL fuel cell.

The large accordion hose that comes off of the factory tank, and clips onto the charcoal canister, could you get a closer picture of what you did with that on the canister.

 

ya I tried to hide it the best I could so I both the smog boxes between the cab and cell.... I will post I pic of it all hooked up later today for ya.

 

I cut the quick fitting off the stock gas tank and just clamped some 5/8" fuel line to it with another reducer to take it to 1/2" (all the reducers are hidden behind the fuel cell) then ran it where the vent on the fuel cell was... than I ran a 1/2" fuel line from the gas cap filler to the evap canister and one more from the gas cap filler to the fuel cell where the return line would normally go... it took me a lil bit to figure out but seems to work fine... its basically the same configuration as stock.

 

We did the same thing with Chino's old Trophy Tacoma. He never had an issue. Super easy once you figure it out, and use all the stock stuff on the cell.

Carport fab at it's finest!

 

Speaking of which. What has Chino been up to? I havent seen or talked to him in about a year.

 

Same here until a few weeks ago when he came in. He has been good! Working a lot out of state, Has a pretty bad ass Chevy 1500 Maxx with a Muzzula kit on it. He came to get a diff cover. They are all on a jeep/crawlin kick right now.

He misses that truck though. As do I! Lot's of fun times in that beast. ESB kit's FTW

 

Paden picked his truck up... hope your happy with it man.
I put some miles on it today and had no issues with the fuel pump or evap, check engine light never came on.. I finished up the wiring and brake lines and made a fire extinguisher mount before Paden picked it up.







and I mounted the seats today
