Hi All

Need some advice on how to get more fuel onto a 95 S1 Disco. The long range tank only takes 30L so it does not seem worth it ??? Anybody have any ideas except for Jerry cans. By the way I am in South Africa so I need practical solutions, eg. building a new tank etc. Thanks Christo

Christo:
suggest that you start with a land rover club, someone there has probably already done the very same thing locally. Us lot in the USA will probably look at this idea blankly and check out the long range tanks in Australia

Who needs a fuel rack when you can buy bungee cords by the dozen at Walmart??? You could try it this way, but I don't recommend it. Saw this a Many Glacier Hotel in Glacier National Park. Tourists!!!

Longranger in OZ make a 130L and 2 X 50 aux tanks, gives you about 230L all up.
