Fuel tank related parts

truck fuel tank

A truck's fuel tank has different characteristics than a passenger car's. The size is relatively large, and large-sized trucks are equipped with large-capacity tanks of about 300 to 400 liters, and some trucks are equipped with multiple tanks. The fuel tank of the truck may be modified such as replacing it with a larger one than the standard equipment or adding more.

Unlike passenger cars, the fuel tank is fixed by tightening the tank on the stay with a band. Since the truck body twists slightly when turning a curve, this fixing method is adopted so that the twist is not transmitted to the tank and damaged.
