I have grown very tired of the small fuel tank in the Toyota FJ Cruiser. Man-A-Fre offers a solution to this problem with there FJ auxiliary fuel tank. The fuel tank is constructed of aluminum and bolts in right in using existing bolt holes.

With this being the only solution for the FJ cruiser I ordered a fuel tank from Man-A-Fre. The installation requires the replacement of the fuel filler stem with a modified version from Man-A-Fre. The new fuel filler has three additional fittings brazed in, a “y” for the fill tube to the new tank, a vent for the new tank, and a fitting for the transfer pump.

The installation also includes a sender and fuel gauge. An electric pump is used for the transfer of the fuel from the auxiliary tank to the primary tank. For my install I am using an existing switch in my switch panel to control the pump.

The install is not for the faint of heart as you will be working with the fuel lines on the FJ.I am REALLY looking forward to the extended range.

The fuel gauge that I have installed is showing empty as 1/4 tank and full as 1/2 a tank. I hope to be able to resolve this issue with the help of Man-A-Fre.
