yz250 Member 3 Member For: 15y 10m 29d Posted 05/06/10 01:22 PM Share Posted 05/06/10 01:22 PM (edited) Hey guys,I've recently been thinking about my next level of mods, and consequently I'm looking at surge tanks. Obviously I won't go wrong with a PW or Rapid tank but at a cost! Stumbled across this Surge tank on ebay, not a bad price and everything to get it up and running. Just thought I'd see if anyone else, has had any experience with the surge tank in question? Cheers.

Havent seen that one before and looks a nice all in one unit.I have a Walpro in tank pump but I have issues down the qurter if I have less than half a tank and I regularly run lover thatn a quarter tank as I often don't have the $$ to fill. So this may give some safety there. Will watch this thread with interest.

More integrated.Not sure about buying from someone with zero feedback though.

Paulie2256 Donating Members 7,441 Member For: 16y 5m 25d Gender: Male Location: SE Melbourne Posted 06/06/10 03:28 PM Share Posted 06/06/10 03:28 PM the best place to mount these things is on the right (intake) side of the engine. Near the starter motor. It is well out of the way. Also make sure you wire it into the vehicles fuel cut system. Very important.
