This is what happen to Old man,s

20,000 kms around Australia towing a small caravan.

Got within 200kms from home and was very lucky they didn't loose every thing when it went up!

When it came off tilt tray, fuel just poured out of the tank.

Found my pics, let's compare!

You can see the hole where the fuel pump drops in, down on the lower level (note don't try opening this with a full tank hahaha). Filler neck is the white pipe out the right side there.

Mine had it from waaaaaaaaaay early days, almost seemed like a factory option. I bought mine at 37,000km though - ex police car. I'm sure if they drove it hard with a full tank they would have gotten it fixed as an OHS priority so maybe I somehow caused it.

Fixed now anyway :)
