I was doing the walk around one of rio tinto sr work 4x4 duel cabs and noticed that rio had the fuel tank breather extended and raised when you look at the position it is very low on top of the tank towards the front whitch is lower than the back of the tank I will be doing the same looking at the front diff breather I can only find one hose that comes up beside the fuel filter I was told that there shoud be 2 hoses the clip that holds the hose has a spare position does the 07 sr have 2 or have toyota changed this to or am I missing a hose thanks Anthony

Hi All
Long range tank gets fitted on Thursday. Did anyone get extended fuel tank breathers fitted when long range tank was installed?

I didn't, only started thinking about it since this post. I'll be talking to Out of town 4wd shortly, the makers of the long ranger.

Hmm, looking at the fuel tank breather in the above pic, it's facing to the front of the vehicle, Yikes, not good. It's sure to pick up dust / mud etc & clog up. I'll have to think about extending the tank fuel breather on my tank.
