This wont tell you when it's full but you have a fuel guage for that but it does mean that you cantt over fill the tank.

Or even better, give it its own hole in the filler neck close to the tank so your not filling the whole neck before it bypasses.

!st idea i thought of, but now that i've fitted the tank i cant be fagged pulling it out and then have to clean it, to weld it...

This is a cool idea. My 2a has two of these side tanks.. one on each side with no main tank - excellent ground clearance

There is a valve that lets me select left or right tank.. but it is currently a petrol 186. I'm pretty sure that this system won't work with a diesel so this feeder idea is perfect

Thanks guys
