Lookat the right bottom corner of the tank in this pic. You willsee an opening. This is how the tank comes to you. Its a female threaded outlet so you need to put a male threaded fitting into it preferably with a tap on it. You couldput a straightforward 90 degree barbed fitting in there but it will still stick out a bit. You need this to attach the hose that goes into the pump to.

Looking at those dimensions I seriously doubt you will get a 350 in there.

I think you are going to have to do away with that racking. The 400 flat is a good idea.

andrew than sound like a challange? lol ioh i do love a challange.

shame theres no supplyer near me as i could try one befor i buy.
i've looked and think it would be doable but as you know i'm no espert on the wfp so dont know how much goes on the out side of the tank.

[Andrew McCann]

Good thing you like challenge coz u got one there 

I know you love your racking but in all honesty that van is going to be packed to the gills with somuch stuff you wont be able to work very well at all from it. I also doubt very much that you could fit a reel on top of the tank.

Here are the plusses for the 400 that was suggested.

It will be far easier to fix in safely. You can cover it with a bit of decent ply with a bit cut out for the tank lid so in effect you will still have almost the entire floor area that you have now. You can fit in in!! 

Think about it... it makes sense

What I wonder wth low level tanks - aren't they a pain when they get down to the last 100 litres or so to get the water pumped out if not parked on suitable slope.

[Clive McDonald]

Take the line of least resistance. If you did manage to fit it, it would be a compromise.

The end result of a 400l flat tank layout will be superb and give the optimum use of the space available.


dd, there is some truth in that but it's not a deal breaker, if it's a problem you can put one wheel on the kerb or park the other way.With an upright tank there are very many drawbacks.

Mr D im also in Poole and ive just done a sort of DIY job in my own van your welcome to have a look and chat sometime if you like ?

Lets not clutter this up with petty squables. you haven't understood what I said ftp about wear etc, my advanced techniques would probably help SLX users even more.

The only way a pole can wear is due to an ingress of dirt and grit. The main introductory agent of this is the internal pole hose which having been lain on the ground goes into the pole throught the sections.

I have solved this problem. You're not interested, fine.

The extra internal pole hose lain on the ground when you are working and the pole is closed is a trip hazard and leads to time consuming tangles.

I have solved this problem. You're not interested, fine.

Well I'd be interested for one.

You may be Toilet Clean's right hand man, but I'm sure you've got got some useful tips.

Best one liner of the night ! LOL
