The fuel tank is a saddle type tank, blow molded from HDPE (high density polyethylene). The tank is located forward of the rear suspension and is mounted using two metal straps. The tank is a sealed unit with the only internal access being through the fuel pump module aperture on the top of the tank.

The fuel pump module flange has a six pin external connector which provides the electrical connections for the fuel pump and both fuel level sensors. A quick release connector provides for the connection of the fuel feed pipe.

The flange is fitted with a locking ring and seal. The seal locates in a groove on the tank. The locking ring locates and clamps on the encapsulated ring that is molded into the fuel tank. The flange has a tag which locates in the top of the tank to ensure correct orientation.

A carrier within the tank provides for the mounting of the passive side jet pump, vent valve, ROV and liquid vapor separator (LVS), level sensors and passive side drain.
