Instructions for relocating the tank
• Avoid unnecessary moving of the fuel tank. If it is
necessary to do so, follow the cautions listed below
and obtain the advice from NAFTA.
• Use MITSUBISHI FUSO authorized fuel hose when
replacing.
• Keep the distance from the filler end and the end of
air vent hose to;
• Over 300 mm {11.8 in.} to exhaust exit
• Over 200 mm {7.87 in.} to exposed electric
terminal
• Don't connect the fuel piping over the exhaust
pipes. Set the connection point where the fuel will
not splash on the exhaust system even if it will
leak.
• Install the tank securely to be free from loosening
or other defect with consideration of the effect of
vibration, layout, and other factors. Any custom
mounting brackets must be designed for sufficient
strength.
• Don't modify the MITSUBISHI FUSO genuine tank.
• Use following flange bolt and nut for mounting the
tank, and tighten them with following torque.
Some of the bolts that fix the tank on the frame are
tightened with frame component such as C/MBR.
These bolts and nuts must be tightened securely
again with new parts if you remove them through
the relocating process.
• Prevent direct contact of any metal parts (as clamp
to fix the fuel pump to brkt) to the fuel pump
housing to avoid electro chemical corrosion: use
plastic or rubber isolation between the fuel pump
and brkt.
• Attach a cover to the fuel pump, and the fuel pump
must be installed in the position that does not
catch mud and spray.

Moving the fuel tank
Install a FHWA-approved fuel tank within the wheel-
base. Consult NAFTA before installing it in other loca-
tions.

Fuel tubes
• Use rubber or metal tubes specified below when
changing the fuel lines.
(a) Fuel hose
Fuel hoses of poor quality may cause a fire.
Always use the standard MFTBC products
described below.

(c) Fuel Nylon tube
• Never extend the fuel lines.
• Use metal tubing for the fuel line inside the engine
compartment.
• Never modify the clips or move the location of
clamps for components in the engine compartment
which can be moved.
• Never install tubes together with electrical wires.
• Follow the procedures described in Section 9
"EXHAUST SYSTEM" when modifying exhaust
system components. Install a Heat insulation panel
if the specified clearances cannot be maintained.
• Be sure to position the fuel lines so that if a fuel
leak should somehow occur, the fuel will not drip
onto the muffler or exhaust pipe. Never connect
the fuel lines above the exhaust system.
• Use the nylon hose and the metal tube for
connection with the fuel tank of the supply piping
and the return piping.
The end shape of the metal tube must be
conformed by SAE J2044 standard.
Otherwise it may cause fuel leakage.
Please be sure to use the specified nylon hose and
metal tube.
• Never use the rubber hose to the supply line (From
the fuel pump to the engine)
7.5.5
Others
• Observe the procedures described in Section 6
"ELECTRICAL WIRING" when modifying the wires
connected with the fuel tank.
• Place the filler port of the fuel tank to allow easy
fueling.
