Hello Bernie,
Re your question:
"Does anyone know if the Long Range FoMoCo tanks are 130 litres capacity as I'm not sure ?"
 
Standard fuel tank should be 16 gallon.
Long range fuel tank should be 28 gallon (128 litres)


Thanks,
Peter.

Thanks Peter

Hi Paul,
I am dead envious of your GT, my absolute favourite colour combo of blue/ silver. Tried to get an XB but none around at the time . have gotten nostalgic about them recently and had a bit of a look around but only rubbish at sell your kidney prices.

I have to share your feelings re XB 4 door GT's  .....   fell in love with a new XA 4 door in yellow and black when they first came out and our client rolled up with one for its second service. Like many, he SWORE the first service was the ONLY time a dealer would ever see their car again.
Nothing's changed  ..........   dealers are the same rip-off no hopers they always were, but I'm sure it's got a lot worse since the advent of On Board Computers and never ending Tech problems and components made of "cheese" & built to fail prematurely.
Our last new car was a 2001 T Prado which hasnt so much as blown a fuse, and still runs like NEW. Can't see us asking for trouble with any new car. If and when the Prado dies, all my Club Plate cars will be more than enough to see us out. My wife loves driving and having the luxury of our 1985 T Crown 5m-ge DOHC "Power everything" with a chassis and independant susp all around and 4 wheel discs!

Hi All
hope you're all well and getting your cars ready for the summer outings if only people do as asked re COVID19.
IMHO, the whole country should have been 100% "locked down" for the period mandated by our Medical Experts back in Feb/March when it was known how UN-KNOWN the dangers of this COVID19 was.  Better this over-kill for 2 or 3 weeks than the 12 MONTH? FIASCO and how may DEAD? we have now.
No hind-sight: Told the local MP this back in Feb, in line with experts 100% more ken than me.
 
It's been 3 weeks now that my 1978 XC Coupe has been adorned with "Club Plates" permit and making me feel like the youngster I was when I drove it out of "Retell Ford" Mentone on that auspicious day in NOV 1978; nervous as all get-out and shaking like a leaf !  The new 128 litre tank solved all my rusty-tank problems. Will keep old tank as orig fitted, to be fixed properly one day?
Drove the 5.8 litre FMX Thermo-Quad to Portsea for lunch  .......  so tempted to "open her up" !!!
Had to be happy with a few spurts to 135 when no other cars nearby ! ..............   Just loves that "Pen-Link"
