American Tank is a
manufacturer of auxiliary fuel systems located in
the North Dallas suburb of Frisco Texas. The
company was founded in 1999 with the objective of
building the best auxiliary fuel system on the
market. To us that means selling a fuel system that
a consumer can easily install himself and then
forget about. We expect you to use our system for a
million miles, and then pull it out and install it
into your next truck. We are so confident that our
fuel tank will last a million miles, we'll stand
behind it for as long as you own it. We have
customers that put us to the test.
Our fuel system is
sold as a complete kit including the fuel tank,
sending unit, fuel tank selector valve, wire
harness, hoses, and hardware. At American Tank
"complete" means no trip to the parts store for a
bolt, clamp, or a wire connector. It also means
that each and every part is proven to work together
without headaches. Many people don't realize that
the fuel tank needs to be manufactured so that
it'll properly work with the parts used for
installation. If you buy a tank from one place,
then a handful of parts from another, you may find
yourself starved out on the side of the road with
tank of fuel. Your 50 gallon tank is now a
38.
Our fuel system
ships preassembled. Any assembly that can be done
without the truck present has been done. The fuel
level sending unit is assembled, the resistance is
checked, it's installed in the tank, and then the
tank receives its final pressure check with all of
its external parts in place. The fuel tank selector
valve has the proper hoses in place to plumb into
the factory fuel lines, and is bolted to its
bracket before going into the kit box. Our wire
harness has the switch on one end, plug for the
selector valve wired into the middle, and
terminated wires running up to the tank. When you
unplug a few wires to run the harness through the
cab, you can't plug them back together the wrong
way.
Our fuel system is
easy to install by the average "Do It Yourselfer".
Our installation instructions are second to none.
They do not contain confusing wire diagrams or
pictures with no explanation. They are written by a
person who's spent many an hour on his back
installing our product. Any "tips" or "tricks" we
use during an installation here are included.
Little things like where to go through the cab with
wiring, and which fuse to use are included. Do
these little things make a difference? They do when
your objective is to be the best.
We think customer
service still counts, and our customer support is
second to none. When you first contact American
Tank by telephone, you don't have the option to
dial one for Mike, two for Mark, or three for
Rocky. A human will answer the phone from 8:00 to
5:00 Central Standard Time weekdays. No one was
born an expert on auxiliary fuel systems. We are
happy to spend the time needed to answer all of
your questions thoroughly and completely. We're
confident that once you know the specifics about
our fuel system, and compare us to the competition,
you'll choose American Tank.
You're still our
customer after we take your money. After hours, our
toll free number is forwarded to a cell phone. If
it's 8:00 Saturday night, you're in middle of
installing a system, and you have a question, just
pick up the phone and call. You might need to leave
a call back number, but we will get back to you in
a timely fashion. Thinking about buying a new
truck? Give us a call first and we can talk about
any parts that may be needed to install your old
tank in your new truck, and then the next
one.
