Fuel tank size on FC-33 - Tim Hannink - 03-24-2006 14:20 Since my coach has a diesel genset and doesn't the gasoline fuel tank, is it possible that it has the larger 265 gallon diesel fuel tank that was standard on the FC-35SB? Where is the gasoline tank located on the FC-33 with the gas genset? Thanks, Tim Hannink 1981 FC-33SB Winter Park, FL Fuel tank size on FC-33 - Jeff Miller - 03-24-2006 15:36 Your fuel tank is 230gallons, the FC33 is shorter and doesn't have the space for the FC35 fuel tank behind the axle. The gasoline tank would be behind the rear storage bin on the curbside. Most FC31 and FC33s of your era only have the half-length bin behind the curbside drive wheel, even if the tank is not behind the half-bin (my 31 did). - Jeff Miller in Holland, MI --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Tim Hannink" wrote: > > Since my coach has a diesel genset and doesn't the gasoline fuel tank, > is it possible that it has the larger 265 gallon diesel fuel tank that > was standard on the FC-35SB? > > Where is the gasoline tank located on the FC-33 with the gas genset? > > Thanks, > > Tim Hannink > 1981 FC-33SB > Winter Park, FL > Fuel tank size on FC-33 - Tim Hannink - 03-24-2006 16:04 That makes sense, I couldn't tell just by comparing photos if the 35 footer had more length behind the rear axle than a 33 footer. My coach does have a full sized right rear cargo compartment, the same size as on the left side. Thanks for the info and clarification.

This means the tank cannot be dropped for repairs or replacement. I go the extra yard to ensure no water buildup in the bottom of my tank.
