S&B TANKS

No. S&B Tanks are specifically designed for diesel applications only.

Your fuel gauge will remain accurate after the S&B Tank has been installed with no changes necessary. If your vehicle displays a distance to empty or range value, that will need to be adjusted for the larger tank capacity in order to be accurate.

S&B makes recalibrating the distance to empty free and easy for compatible vehicles. S&B has teamed up with EZ Lynk to provide an Auto Agent 2.0 to adjust the tank size and distance to empty in your vehicle. For a $500 deposit we will send an EZ Lynk to you along with a prepaid return label. Once you have completed the calibration, return the EZ Lynk to us and your deposit will be released back to you.

Currently, no technology is available from EZ Lynk to recalibrate the distance to empty in any GM or Ram applications. If this changes we will certainly notify our tank owners.

When a vehicle manufacturer designs a fuel tank, the advertised capacity includes a built-in reserve. Typical OE reserve amounts range from 2-4 gallons of the advertised capacity. The reserve fuel is “built in” to the sending unit for the fuel gauge; when the gauge registers Empty the reserve fuel is still there to help the vehicle owner avoid running out of fuel. When the fuel tank is upgraded to an S&B Tank, the OE sending unit is transferred to the S&B Tank, and thus so is the reserve fuel. However since the S&B Tank has a greater surface area than the OE tank, the reserve fuel amount will be greater as well, usually 6-8 gallons.

The use of a gravity feed tank or electronically controlled transfer tank connected either directly or indirectly to the S&B Tank will void the warranty on the S&B Tank. Gravity feed and electronically controlled transfer tanks can cause the S&B Tank to be overfilled and lead to tank expansion, leaks, and tank failure. Without the required vapor space in the tank, this violates the “overfill restriction” requirement of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration 49 CFR 393.76(12)(i).

S&B Tanks are made out of the best quality high-density crosslink polyethylene. S&B Tanks hold many advantages over metal fuel tanks. S&B Tanks will not rust, corrode, delaminate over time, won't have condensation like metal tanks, and are more resilient than metal tanks.

Please protect yourself by ensuring that you only purchase S&B products from an S&B Authorized Dealer.

What is not covered by the S&B Tanks Warranty
GPI fuel transfer pumps and EZ Lynk devices are not covered on the S&B Tanks warranty.

Replacement of Product.
In order to return any product to S&B, an RMA number must be issued. The customer must supply proof of purchase and the product must be sent back at the customer’s cost.

The extent of Warranty.
If a defective product is properly returned to S&B Tanks, it will be replaced. S&B Tanks reserves the right to decide as to if the terms of the warranty outlined above have been followed properly. Should S&B decide that the terms of the warranty do not apply, S&B will under no obligation honor this warranty. Under no condition shall S&B Tanks be responsible for any contingent, special, consequential, indirect, or other damages.

What will S&B Tanks do if I encounter a problem with a dealer?
Although there are laws to protect your rights (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act was passed to protect the consumer’s right to purchase parts not made by an OE), in rare cases, some dealerships attempt to use simply the presence of an S&B Fuel Tank to deny a legitimate warranty claim and instead force the consumer to cover the cost of the repair. Some less scrupulous dealers leverage the consumer’s need to get their vehicle back on the road, in order to get the consumer to cover the cost of the repair.

In the unlikely event you have an issue with your dealer, S&B will go above and beyond to help you resolve the issue quickly and effectively.

Some 2017 Ford Super Duty truck owners noticed that when refueling, their truck seemed to hold less fuel than what was advertised by Ford. These customers would take their truck to a fuel station when the low fuel warning illuminated and would fill their tank to full, but only dispense 24-25 gallons of fuel into the tank. Ford issued technical service bulletin 17-0046 to address these customer concerns at the dealer level. Ford dealers were instructed to follow the service bulletin procedure to correct the customer complaint. For diesel powered trucks, the procedure was to replace the fuel tank and fuel level sender assembly (aka resistor card) on all 2017 trucks built on or before March 20, 2017. S&B recommends all Ford Super Duty truck owners replace their resistor card when installing an S&B fuel tank unless you can verify the resistor card was previously replaced by a Ford dealer. By replacing the resistor card you are ensuring your fuel gauge will accurately communicate the level of fuel inside the tank. If the resistor card is not replaced, your fuel gauge and distance to empty (DTE) miles may not be accurate and may indicate you are low on fuel when there is still fuel inside the tank. The Ford fuel level sender assembly is part number HC3Z-9A299-N, and it can be purchased through any Ford OEM Parts supplier.
