29 gallons, if you do the in tank mods you can squeeze 32 gallons.

You can squeeze it in regardless. The in-tank mods don't increase capacity, it just makes it easier to get to that capacity limit.

without the mod it take a WHILE to get to top of filler neck.. with mods you only have to ffight a couple gallons in..

weird thing today..

went to get fuel and gauge was reading fine.. less than half tank. put in 18.44 gallons ($40)which did not fill up to neck. Got in truck and turned key, noticed fuel gauge at 1/4 tank and then drop to E which caused the light to come on.

I figure maybe the connection came off?? had to loosen straps couple weeks ago to replace rubber filler part as the one I was using had a crimp and was real SLOW filling tank.

have to get under there check connection and HOPE that is all it is. I did reset trip odometer so at least I can keep up with miles driven and when it get low drop tank adn see what is up..

anyone else have issue sending unit after tank mod??
