GOING TO PUT ANOTHER M35 FUEL TANK ON DRIVERS SIDE. ANY ONE KNOW WHAT IS THE EASIEST WAY TO HOOK IT UP. I WAS THINKING JUST USE A TEE TO TAP INTO OLD TANK AND USE THE NEW FUEL TANK FUEL PUMP AS A TRANSFER PUMP TO DUMP FUEL INTO FUEL TANK #1. WHAT DO YOU THINK? ANY ONE DO THIS YET/

Yes, yes and yes! Withut a doubt the easiest way is to transfer fuel from one tank to the other. Cab mounted switch works great. Experience offers a word of advice! Hook up a bright legend light indicating when the pump is on. No matter how good your memory is, eventually you will get siidetracked and pump too much. If I ever do it again, I'll tap into the low air buzzer as well. There is a surplus low air warning kit which consists of a red light and a few wires that easily works for your application. I'll bet Saturn has em!

Steve;
All I did was run a simple hose on the bottom with a reinforcing crossmember since I'm not planning to go off road with it. I hooked mine up just like on my two semis so I only need one fuel pump, one fuel gauge, one return line and no need for anything else. Check out my pics on the site and you'll see.
