A 180B sedan almost bolts in and gives 55ltrs storage, 10 up on a 1600. You need to lightly trim the flared sides of the 180B tank where the top and bottom sections of the tank join, to fit it between the towers. Be careful not to cut inside the weld when trimming. For safety, dont use a grinder, use a hacksaw or snips. As the 180 tank is deeper, you also need to fabricate two small (25mm) blocks to mount the tank on and bolt through these to the original mounts. The 180B fuel gauge sender plugs into the 1600 wiring loom and works correctly. The 180 fuel filler neck fits, and will probably be in better condition than the 1600 one.
A 200B tank is built differently. The join between the top and bottom halves is not horizontal. This makes mounting a bit more difficult, and the filler neck is too high to fill from the original filling position. For the extra 5 litres over a 180B tank its not worth the hassle, in my opinion. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Williams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, 2 January 2002 15:19 PM Subject: Fuel Tank for 1600 > Hi, > I was just wondering what fuel tank I can put in my 1600 I was hoping > for about 60 Litres.
