mmt 15 Posted July 12, 2008 Does all 205 fueltanks have the same mountingpoints? My 205 1.9 Gti fueltank is destroyed and I can only get another tank from a 205 1.4. The 1.4 can´t hold the same amount of fuel but that does not matter as the car is for track use only. But does it fit on my car??? Thanks /Martin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,657 Posted July 12, 2008 yes it will fit, though it may not have a baffle like the gti does. all 205 fuel tanks are the same size @ 50 ltrs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve@cornwall 100 Posted July 12, 2008 Thanks, just what I wanted to hear:-) /Martin Will the 1.4 tank have the mountings for the fuel pump and provision for a fuel return ? - not trying to be negative - I actually would like to know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,657 Posted July 12, 2008 the return on the injected engine is via the fuel pump assembly, so when swapping tanks there's no additional work required, if you were to fit injection to a non injected car you'd need the return pipe and injection pump. the 1.4 will have a swirl pot/pickup thing where the pump unit would sit in an injected 205 so you just swap these over.

steve@cornwall 100 Posted July 12, 2008 Sorry ti hijack - So a change from a carbed 205 to injection engine just requires removal of swirlpot, direct replacement with injection pump , and addition of injection return pipes from rail to pump? ( this would mean one less ballache for something planned ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted July 12, 2008 How do you remove the pump bit from a base model tank then? I didn't think you could? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GTI6BOY 29 Posted July 12, 2008 i just went from a carbed 1.4 rallye tank and had to use a gti tank as it does not have a hole for the pump Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miles 331 1 Cars Posted July 12, 2008 Just to confirm the above, The std tank's do not have the hole for the fuel pump, Maybe the late CAT version's may do but otherwise it's a GTi tank, If you;ve got Carb's thou it's fine to use.
