I hope the quality control has improved in the past 10 years or so. Back in 2010 I bought a Long Ranger 180 litre tank to replace the 50 litre sub tank in my 100 Series. Fitting it was going to be too big a job for me, so I got a local mechanic to do the job. Half way through the morning he gives me a call: "Better come around here....something's not right". So, I go around to his workshop and the problem was VERY apparent. You blokes make up a steel ring with tapped holes, to mount the factory sender unit into. Trouble with mine was that it was welded on to the tank by the School kid who was doing work experience...UPSIDE DOWN. Now I live in a small country town in South Australia and I rang LR to see what they thought. Well, they couldn't give a flying fig about the issue. Said I could send it back (at MY expense) or sort out whatever way I could. It was going to cost hundreds of $$$ to send it back, so I chose to get the mechanic shop to drill and tap a whole new set of holes and weld-up the old ones. What a far-cup!!! Thanks for nothing LR Tanks!!!!!

Question to Long Ranger Tanks: I have a 2019 PX3 Ford Ranger dual cab ute and I would like to install a long range fuel tank, my question is if I fit one of these tanks, I have been told that the distance to empty will not work correctly as the cars computer will still only calculate distance to empty for 80L, is there a fix for this?

You might be able to remap the ecu but other than that you probably can't.
What about distance to empty readings on a Pajero Sport?
