Is the gas tank on a Jeep Wrangler YJ?
This fuel sending unit is for the carburetor Jeep Wrangler YJs only. As I mentioned above, for northern bust belt Jeep Wrangler rigs, rust is common. This skid plate holds everything it catches!! Without dropping the tank there isnt anyway to wash out the salt and junk that builds up.
Can you add 20 gallons to a YJ tank?
Doing the 15 to 20 gallon YJ tank mod is fairly straight forward. But not always easy. But it is free! Just a little bit of time involved. There is a video at the bottom demonstrating the mod.
Can a jeep get a 20 gallon tank?
Customer orders a new Jeep. Gets many upgrades such as air conditioning, nice sound system and even upgraded interior. Then they get to the 20 gallon upgrade option on the order list. Oooo .. gotta have that so I can enjoy driving longer between fill ups.
What happens when the gas tank is below 15 gallons?
The fuel hand will show full for a long time. This is because the fuel level is higher than the 15 gallon sending unit can accommodate. So, until the actual fuel level is less than 15 gallons in the tank, the sending unit and therefore the fuel gauge will not move. Once it starts getting below 15 gallons the fuel hand starts dropping as it should.
