Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Fuel Tank
The fuel tank has a storage capacity of 66 liters (17.4 gallons). The fuel tank is manufactured from steel and is located behind the rear wheels below the rear seat area. The shape of this tank was designed to allow for a constant supply of fuel around the fuel pump strainer during low fuel conditions and also during aggressive vehicle maneuvers. The fuel tank is equipped with a fuel cut-off valve. The fuel cut-off valve consists of a float and a spring. The fuel cut-off valve allows only fuel vapors to enter the fuel vapor pipe.
