I was looking to put some fender fuel tanks on my 1850 Oliver. I am wanting to put duels on it and it would be a great deal easier to fuel up from the rear, and hopefully hold more fuel. Does anyone have any experience with these tanks?? Are they good or bad??? What would be a good price for a pair, or does anyone have a pair they would like to sell?? Any help would be nice.

We use the fender fuel tanks on a number of our Olivers, especially the ones that run irrigation pumps all night. There are basically two types. The first type is built directly into the tractor cab. The second type are the stand alones which consist of a tank that runs all the way to the bottom of the fender. This type is preferred since it holds almost twice as much fuel as the cab type. I puchased a set two years ago for $100 from a private party. I also got a set from Worthington tractor salvage, but paid more. When buying, check for any damage near the connection at the bottom. I have also replumbed the connection eliminating the original equipment hookup. The other item you need to know is that the system usually hooks into the diesel return line coming back from the injector at the (usually) top front of the main fuel tank. This modification includes a tee fitting and running lines to each fender tank. You will also need a non-vented cap on the main tank and vented caps on the fender tanks. The non-vented cap should be new otherwise the system will not draw out fuel below the main tank level. ps If you do not plumb and vent the system correctly, you will eithor not use all the available fuel or you will have fuel leaking out at the lower tank.
