the fueltank for my Europa is finished.
It get an universal 240-30 Ohm fuel gauge sender from a boat, a BOSCH fuelpump and an adjustable presure regulator.
It is made of 2mm AlMg3.

Hi Ralf,

Would you mind sharing the part numbers that you used? I am exploring the options. I am debating doing an in tank pump up, but I am struggling to find a good solution for the bulkhead connector. As soon as my press brake is running I am going to make some baffled FI capable alloy tanks for all three series of Europa, my Eclat, and my Esprit.

Hello Chuck Nukem,
I used a BOSCH pump which is regular used for outside. The inlet of the pump I connected with a 16mm Aluminiumpipe so it can get the fuel from the bottom of the tank. Inside that pipe I put a pre filter.
The fuel gauge sender is a universal one, like they use in boats.
The pressure regulator is an universal adjustable one.

The pressure regulator is one like this:

If you can weld and are doing an efi tank, this is how I did mine with an intank pump.
