Q: How much more range will I get with a TITAN™ Fuel Tank?
A:A TITAN Fuel Tank will just about double the range of most popular crew cab applications. For example, the stock tank on a GM Crew Cab Short Bed truck is 26 gallons; the TITAN replacement is 52 gallons. A Ford Crew Cab Long Bed comes with a 34 gallon tank; the replacement TITAN Fuel Tank holds 67 gallons. For extended cab and other applications, you can expect at least a 65% to 90% increase in capacity and corresponding range.

Q: Will my fuel gauge be accurate?
A:Yes. Your analog fuel gauge will work the same with the TITAN Fuel Tank as it did with your original stock equipment tank.

Q: Will my Driver Information Center (DIC) computer work the same?
A:No. The DIC computer will not be accurate.

Q: Is there a way to ―fix the DIC computer?
A:Some independent companies are coming out with ways to reprogram the computer and match it to the larger tank. EFI Live (www.efilive.com) can reprogram most GM products.

Q: Can I install a TITAN Fuel Tank on my gasoline-powered truck?
A:No. TITAN Fuel Tanks are only for diesel-fueled vehicles.

Q: How much does the tank weigh?
A:The short-bed tank models weigh an average of 45 pounds (without the bracket hardware). This means more capacity with less weight and easier installation.

Q: How difficult is installation?
A:We’ve made every effort to make installation as simple as possible. The TITAN Fuel Tank fits in place of your original tank. We include all the necessary parts and detailed instructions. Generally speaking, installation entails removing the stock tank, moving the sending unit to the new TITAN Tank, reattaching the fuel lines and bolting in the new tank. Your TITAN dealer can help you with installation.

Q: How long does installation take?
A:Between 2 - 4 hours depending on your expertise. We’ve seen TITAN Fuel Tanks installed in 45 minutes.

Q: Is the TITAN Fuel Tank as durable as the original stock equipment tank?
A:More durable and better warrantied. Most stock (or original equipment) tanks are relatively thin and made of materials like Linear Polyethylene. TITAN Fuel Tanks are made of High-Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLHDPE), which is bonded molecularly. Also, the nominal thickness of all TITAN Tanks is ¼ of an inch. TITAN Fuel Tanks are so tough that they are backed by a 5-year, or 50,000-miles, limited warranty.

Q: Does the TITAN Fuel Tank hang down lower than the stock tank?
A:For most applications the TITAN hangs about 1- to 2½-inches lower than the stock tank. Usually the difference is negligible.

Q: Do I need the TITAN™ Shield?
A:The TITAN Shield, made of XLHDPE, is incredibly tough. It fits over the bottom of the tank, providing the underside with a rock shield. We recommend it for owners who go off-road.

Q: How quickly could you ship a TITAN Fuel Tank to me?
A:If you don’t have a local TITAN dealer – and there are hundreds of dealers across the country – a tank could be shipped directly to you, FedEx Ground or Freight. Click the ―Dealer link. If you don’t have a local dealer, to order a TITAN Fuel Tank, click here or call (208) 522-1325.
