Re: Increasing Overall capacity of the fuel tanks
Update on fuel capacity of a 1996: I scooted underneath the van (the 4x4 lift is helpful in that regard...) and measured the gas tank: approx. 58" long, 14" wide and 10" deep for a total volume of 8120 cubic inches. As I understand it, a gallon of unleaded gas = 231 cubic inches. 8120...

Re: Newbie worried about charging laptops

Increasing Overall capacity of the fuel tanks
Dear B190 owners, I am posting in the 'Drivetrain' subject line as it seems closest. Has anyone ever added an extra fuel tank to increase the capacity to near 50+ gallons? My '96 claims to have a 35 gallon tank although when it hits "E" the most it will take is 22 gallons--either that is g...

Re: Software update

Re: Newbies: Please read
Thanks for the replies. The van is in really good shape with 36,000 on it when I bought it, no rust. Engine was completely checked out and running well. Yes, I have seen pictures of the "The Beast" on this forum, he did a 4x4 conversion at Boulder Off Road--his was one of the write-ups tha...
