    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    One more bit of clarification, wouldnt let me add this to the main post with all my details (only lets me add 10 file attachments). This is looking at the frame rail where the fuel lines are. Notice the fuel line/brakeline bracket. When you take out your 26gal, all 4 holes are used, the top...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Well confirmed Range to empty reprogramming worked as expected with AlfaOBD. First time cracking 500miles with a fillup I just did. And that 352 was my actual 26gal trip mileage.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Alright so heres what has to be done. I dont have pics for everything as I was one man'ing this for the most part except when i needed help to get the 33gal tank up. 8179 picture attached - You need to remove that entire plastic cover that is holding what looks like two metal brake lines, the...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Well old one out. New one in. Here is a teaser of them side by side. I’ll write a more detailed post later. Only took about 2hrs. Dropped the whole tank myself actually.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Just in case y’all didn’t get the gravity of the situation on the pump assembly I pulled out. Here is what it SHOULD look like. So yes what I pulled out was bent almost at a 45degree angle. If I didn’t pull this out and popped the tank in, man I’m lucky if I even had access to even 15gals cause...

    Alpha Obd or Taser DT

    You need to install a security bypass module. It’s located just under the drivers foot well. Directly above the the OBD port near the door side. You have to pull two plugs and put them into a security bypass module. Done need to remove any panels or anything. The bypass modules are about $50. I...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Well don’t ask me why but I randomly decided to pull my fuel pump today. I was intending on just swapping the whole tank as I got it. Well I open it and this is what I find. First a fuel pump that looks super crooked. And a baffle sitting inside the tank just loose. So lol if you get one...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Well I ordered my 3 parts (forgot above to mention the Nut/Flange which I need since we need to use all 3 straps) at a local dealer, unfortunately no one has two of the parts around us, so has to come from Michigan, so guess that will be 2-3 business days. So maybe Saturday (then could do it...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Alright folks, here is what Ive gathered so far after looking at this tank and parts diagrams. Here is what I really think you all going to need. I will modify or update this later once I make the swap, but will be slightly different for me since I got a good bit of parts already. Here are...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I’m going to update the parts list tonight for you all. But I can tell you right now parts are missing from the original invoice the previous member posted. Definitely going to need hose and vapor lines (like me don’t need it thanks to them giving me the whole damn tank assembly). Even canister...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Well boys (and gals) looks like I lucked out. Tank arrived. And it came with damn near everything. All three straps. Entire fuel line assembly. Pump. Evap canister. Hell even has some gas lol. I doubt I will need much in parts now. Just need to analyze the diagram to see what’s missing.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Yea I got the 26gal so most of it was similar like the fuel pump. So my 33gal should be here in 2hrs (driver just called me) so will see what it looks like what Im seeing I need from under the car without removing the old tank just yet. Then I will need to start ordering these hoses and vent...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    So just to chime in. Finally ordered the damn tank. That should be here tomorrow. Coming with the straps. Coming off junked car. They didn’t include any hoses. So will have to order those soon. Now here’s the other rub. From what folks mentioned on what parts are needed I’m seeing some...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I’m not anywhere near that. The bypass cost me $55 shipped. Then the AlfaOBD off play store is $49. I already had an OBDII Wi-Fi based reader anyways so that wasn’t any cost to me but even then those are only $15 on Amazon. You don’t need the MX OBDLink ones that cost $79. My $15 no name works...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Wouldn’t put a lot of importance on that honestly as it was done in the garage and didn’t move or even start the truck. But key here is that it did change meaning I’m sure after a tank of full to empty it should reflect accurately. I validated it by checking my dads truck which is identical...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    Just following up here, after getting the security bypass module to let me program via AlfaOBD, I simply changed the fuel capacity from 98 liters to 125 liters and saved it and saw my range increase about 25miles, so that is really all that needs to be done. Nothing else. And no I still havent...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I can confirm here looking at my truck and my dads (who has the 33gal tank), the only setting you would need to change is the fuel tank from 98 liters to 125 liters. The cluster1 (fuel full and empty) are identical settings, so that means the fuel gauge portion doesnt get affected for the...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I’ve also failed to mention a key piece for me. Me and my old man both bought the same 2019 Limited. Except his got the 33gal tank. Now I’m thinking of just one weekend taking my tank down and comparing pieces and parts (if we even have to still do that) and see what’s different from his. He...

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    So which two part numbers are not needed? Im probably just going to do this regardless, I will deal with the distance to empty portion later, parts of me think it may self figure itself out after a tank or two, but we will see. Dixit

    iOS 13 CarPlay

    I have iOS 13. It’s still half the screen when talking about the 12” screen. It just gives you more windows to view at once which still sucks for us cause it’s only using half the screen anyways on car play. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
