[DeTomaso] Fuel Tank Pick-Up Tube

[Larry Stock]

Sounds like you have an earlier Pantera with the fuel pick up tube fixed into the tank that you can't service the filter sock at the bottom of the tube with. I added a late model fuel tank sending unit to my tank that comes with a serviceable pick up tube and the adapted in a Y connector to pull from both tubes into a larger AN-8 fuel supply hose.

    Has anyone ever increased the size of the suction line that goes inside the tank?  Mine looks kind of narrow and I was worried about being able to keep up with any engine upgrades (650hp+) I may have done in the future.  I’m about to get the tank Powder Coated black and figured if I do anything to it, I should do it now.  How about putting a sock or filter on the end of it?  Thanks.  Eric
