does anyone know what the ideal mounting setup is for a normal forktruck tank i was wondering if there were any downfalls to having them stand up do they have a siphon tube in them like a nos bottle

they do have a tube in them. mounting verticle works just as well as horizontal. with horizontal make sure the nozzle points towards the ground because the tube inside has a bend at the end. if you mount it with the nozzle up it will starve engine for fuel. ask me how i know :D.lol

u would think standing up would be ideal setup for offroad, being less room for liquid to move. alot people that lay them horizontal alway have bottom tank facing back, so when u on hill lp gettin to tube and not lean motor out. hard to make room to stand up

thanks guys im trying to make a lil more space and standing the tank up would help greatly in that i just want to make sure im getting the most out of my tanks
Take out the passenger seat and mount it next to you. More room and less stress!
