right imy tank is fooked and leaking so i have had a brain wave (mabey a stroke) i am going to make a new one and i am going to locate it inside the vehicle just behind the rear bulkhead (nice central location), now i have to chose the size two of the dimentions are set by the width of the tub between the arches and the hight of the arches so i have 36" and 8" already.
now the only dimention left is how far from the bulkhead it protudes i have done a little math and come up with three sizes that seem the best first up is 12" which will give a capacity of 54L, 15" which gives a capacity of 67L and 20" which gives a capacity of 90L my first instinct is to go bigger is better but with the other mods i have planned for the landy (200Di convertion supposed to give 35mpg) i am not sure i will ever need a tank range of 680miles...........
