TJ gas tank modification question
 

I've seen some posts for the older (87-95) jeeps where you could modify
the vent tube to allow you to fully fill the gas tank to 19 gallons.

Is this true with the TJ's (1997+) also?

Can you modify the gas tank that way?


Any web sites/URL's that show how this is done would be great!

Re: TJ gas tank modification question
 

go ahead and modify the tank and when the check engine lite comes on because
the vapor canister is filled with gas and the engine fuel management is
trying to burn it off but it can't and your mileage goes into the crapper
because the fuel trim adaptives are way out of whack
