Titan’s replacement fuel tanks solve delamination issues of 2011-newer Ford F-350-550 cab-chassis trucks
Titan Fuel Tanks has started shipping its new 40-gallon, military-grade polyethylene, rear-aft fuel tank engineered to fit 2011-2015 Ford F-350, F-450 and F-550 diesel cab-chassis trucks.
For years, widespread problems have been attributed to fuel-related degradation and delamination of the protective linings of steel fuel tanks.
Titan’s polymer tanks aren’t susceptible to the chemical and biological reactions that diesel, bio-diesel fuels and additives are accused of causing such issues.
As the coating deteriorates, particles of it are sloughed off, contaminating the fuel source, causing failures along the fuel’s path through pumps, filters and injectors.
Fuel tank delamination is considered a fuel-related issue and is not covered under warranty — and repair costs can mount rapidly and in many cases a new steel tank with the same susceptibility to failure is installed.
Titan says the new tanks are easy to install, come in kit form and are available now in the United States, Canada and Australia. The vehicle’s stock fuel sending unit can be reused and replacement skid plates, straps and ancillary components ordered from any Ford dealership.
All Titan replacement fuel tanks are backed by the company’s exclusive five-year limited warranty.
