Thanks for the video. I’m going to install the Titan tank in anticipation of an Alaska trip next summer. I just subscribed and love your content and channel.
Thanks Doug! I appreciate that!
As much as I want a larger fuel tank, after paying $80k for a truck, my fuel gauge better work. Its a hard pass for me until they can fix it.
S&B should sell a add on secondary fuel gauge for the GMC/Chevy trucks. They exist for transfer tanks thus a float add on and wires and display and a bit of program it should be able to offer something.
When I had my 2018 ram 3500 I install the 50 gals titan tank and since I couldn't get the dash to read it I fill it up and I can usually go for about 200 miles before the needle move.
Yeah same thing on my 2015 Duramax. But unfortunately this just drops to empty until I restart the truck
You will have to reprogram the ECM to show more fuel capacity for a bigger fuel tank. Otherwise it will send a check engine light. All you need is a good quality, scan tool and go in and change your fuel tank size from a 36 gallon tank to a 62 gallon tank.
I dont think you can do that on the newer HD's. If you know of a tool to do so, I'd be happy to listen! From what I was told, it's a coded ecm? Or some secret hush hush locked ecm.
I read through your comments from three months ago and just want to follow up to see if you’re distance to empty corrected itself after 10 tank refills.
Thanks buddy. At this moment, no fixes yet but anytime now they will have a fix for this
My experience has been on my GMC 2021 Denali. My gauges seemed to work right off, after fourth tank my gauge went to empty after a fill up. It has not yet reset to read yet after several on off cycles. I’ll drive it, I just track my miles to refuel. I did install a s&b map sensor spacer kit as well but don’t believe that effects the fuel gauge. Let me hear any feedback
@@wenhargis7727 Bummer; my guage works after i cycle ignition. A Banks iDash is small and super handy to have in the truck. that will show the true reading no matter what
I know I've seen for the ford's s&b sends you a programmer and you can change your gallons capacity on the truck ecm pretty cool
I wish the Duramax's were like that, I have seen screenshots of Fords with over 1000 miles to Empty. must be nice lol.
Awesome content. The install of the fuel tank is a bit out of my comfort zone but the Banks install is more my cup of tea. Any negatives on installing the Bank products? I am awaiting on my 2023 GMC Denali 2500 which will arrive at the dealer next Tuesday. It has the Black Diamond Edition package and Ultimate Package. Pretty excited. Just subscribed. Keep them vids coming.
First, i appreciate the feedback! Comments like this make it worthwhile making these videos.
Secondly, I don’t really regret any of the bank’s products. At the time of writing this, i have all of the products on the truck that they offer.
I will say it depends on your goal though, you can always reach out to me directly to tweak some of the stuff they offer into making it perfect for your needs. One of those things will be fixed soon when they offer a “pillar mount” for the banks iDash: it doesn’t need to be on the windshield like that
But other than that, I’m really happy with it!
The Banks setup is a must
I did the data logger, pedal monster and the derringer waiting on the cold air intake and boost tubes the difference is hard to believe.
I have a BDS 6.5 lift 38x15.5 and the truck has 0 lag and a ridiculous amount of power on take off from a dead stop I am amazed every time I drive it and I only keep it on the 3 power setting with the pedal monster setup all the way up
Thank you, this is helpful and very informative.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Can you reset the DTC on your iDash (and have it bring the gauge back up)?
Love the Titan tank in my LBZ.
Loved it in my LML too ; awesome tanks!
bro, you got your truck from a dealer about 10min from my house lol. I just got my LZ0 about a month ago, and already thinking about throwing a Titan in it and preordered my FSS system already. Maybe we can link up and you can school me lol This is my "intro" to diesel truck lol. I plan later to eventually upgrade to a 3500. But in the meantime, I'll see what this one can do.
Absolutely buddy!! I got way behind on my comments on here. my notifications got turned off. let me know, we can do all the mods on the baby duramax for sure!
I have a 2021 GMC AT4 2500
Diesel and I installed the TiTan tank as well I also have the Banks set up I had the same problem with the fuel gauge going to empty randomly
I use the banks fuel percentage as well also every time I fill up I set the trip gauge to 0 and figure the MPH on the low side as another check point. I was told by the shop that installed the tank that you need to fill the tank all the way and then go as close to empty as possible maybe up to 10 times for the truck to re-calibrate. I was told not to do intermediate fill ups. Also with this tank anyone desiring to install a Hellwig rear sway bar as I did it will not work with this tank.
But what will work Is the Hellwig swaybar for the ram truck which mounts to the rear
Great feedback! What they told you is right off Titans website on the 10 tanks. I don’t know if anyones confirmed this working. I spoke with Titans technical team and they even said they weren’t sure
Yea unfortunately I am only on my 4th tank so it’s gonna be awhile as it’s not my daily drive
I understand that part for sure; i need to still go through my 2nd tank of fuel
Mine worked well for a month, then went to zero. I’ll reset trip meter and run it awhile
does the skid plate still fit when the large tank it installed?
With that titan tank did you have to Re Flash your ECM like S& B tanks????
wish you would have shown sliding tank into position and going up in truck
This is an awesome video sir, I have a ram long bed 3500 which have a 50 gals tank, it came in handy when I travel from WA to NC and back, now I'm waiting for the 2024 Duramax Silverado long bed to come in and I want to get a bigger tank install in it, how do you like it now?
wish you would have shown tank going into position and up into the truck
Awesome Video. Did you run into any issues with the DTC getting thrown with your Titan tank? If so, did you resolve it or just live with it?
I am still up in the air on ordering one of these. I know HP tuners can now unlock the ECM, I'm hoping someday we can reset the max gallons in the tank on the ECM.
My gauge worked fine at start, after awhile dropped to empty ad stayed there. Not yet ran a full tank thru it. Ordered a idash to back it up. Hope it clears to read
Absolutely; idash is a simple tool to help with all that
I just purchased a 2023 GMC Sierra with the Duramax 3.0L L6. It comes with a 24 gal fuel tank. I would love to have one of the removed tanks. I expect I would have the same issues with fuel gauge system thinking there is something wrong. Maybe not with 10 or 12 gals more? The added range would be worth it, if someone has a way to calibrate the control module.
I enjoyed the subject of your video. I have subscribed. 👍
Thanks i appreciate that Eric! I still have my OEM tank 36G but it’s unlikely to fit your truck. Titan and S&B released some aftermarket tanks for the 3.0 Duramax that we have been selling
@@americanduramax I'll have to have a look for the Titan tank. I need to check out your other videos too. Thanks for the reply.
@@53Ericd thanks! I appreciate it; feel free to email me if you want the aftermarket tank. We got great pricing on them all
Scovelmotorsports@gmail.com
Great video. But I think I’ll wait it out and hope someone gets a fix for this. I wouldn’t be able to deal with that gauge being on E. 😂😂
I have the 60 gal on my '20 CCLB. Pulling a stock trailer all the time, sure beats filling up every 300 miles. @ AmericanDuramax, what do you get empty after the CAI and booster tubes? Thanks and great videos
Thank you! i appreciate the feedback. the bigger tank is definitely worth it. Hard to say, i have such mixed driving and on the long hauls we do, I'm doing up to 90MPH some of the time on flat empty roads or doing 60MPH on them with my 5th wheel and neither give me very good mileage. i also have to factor in that my speedo is off from the 37's and since I don't have a pulsar LT to fix it, it will calculate MPG's incorrectly too. I think i get less than my deleted LML did , probably 16-17 highway for now. when i tune it and add a more efficient turbo, i should see close to 20MPG on 37's
Nick,does that I dash help with towing your 5th wheel? And what do you get mpg with 5er connected..I have a 22 ram dually and 43 ft chaparral..I get about 11mpg
I get about 11-12 MPG towing the 40’ toy hauler i have right now buddy
2020 3.0 babymax here... do you have a tank that fits?? also, is there a tune to stop the gauge from going to empty?
why this instead of a transfer tank which only adds to your stock tank
Because I still use my bed for dirt bikes and stuff and with that added in there, i'd have to have the tailgate down.
just wanted the option to keep my bed clean and free
@@americanduramax that’s fair. I have the long bed so it’s less of an issue for me. I’m just trying to justify the $1500. I think for the $ I would prefer to add 50 or 60 gallons instead of 20.
Has there been a fix for the gauge issue yet?
I’m really wanting to put one of these tanks on my 2022 2500 Duramax.
I just keep hoping they have the program I g issues lined out for the dash.
@americanduramax
Has your distance to empty/fuel range reset?
If i fill the truck all the way up; it still reads like 400 miles till empty ; my needle works again i still need to top it off and do a long drive again to see if it’ll work without dropping to E
@@americanduramax I looked at this tank and the S&B 62 gallon tank and I believe I’ve read it takes 10 full to empty runs to relearn. I think I’m going to wait until they figure out the dash issues.
It’ll likely be a tuning fix from a custom tuner rather than a fix by S&B / Titan anytime soon.
@@FROGMAN524 I am working with HP tuners to have them fix this. I have a 62 gallon on my 2020.
Do you have a fuel tank for Sierra 1500 single-cap 2020? thanks
Do you need to go in and change the size of the tank?
Previous years of the duramax like the LML (11-16 Year) didn’t have features that made the truck go to “Empty” in response of the truck thinking it was having an issue with the sending unit. There was also devices like Ezlynk that would correct the tank size within the computer calculation readout of miles left.
Today, someone would need to do something similar to fix this. I’m optimistic of a fix but Titan would need to reach out to companies like Edge products or others who have / are becoming able to tune these trucks without ecm swaps
@@americanduramax I hope they do cause it is something I would like to do to my 2022 LTZ 2500
When will their be for Crf110 content?
Very soon! Long overdue for an update!
56 gals, so thats a $350 to fill up. At the moment. I bet it beats going to fill it up every 500miles.
Exactly; and without a trailer or driving day to day doesn’t bother me but long road trips & long trips with the trailer does so that’s where I think it’s worth it
I have this tank and if I fill at the pump at full speed it will overflow, did you have a similar problem?
I do not but my 2015.5 had a titan tank and it did this. it was actually so bad that it would burst past the nozzle and get all over the side of my truck and the fuel pump.
@@americanduramax I found and fixed my problem, I did not install the included check valve. I placed it as directed in the fill neck and it works just like oem
@@SinisterC6 that makes sense; just need to have that in the filler neck. perfect!
have any of your mod voided the warranty?
Likely not; i think some dealers can be bad but my local dealer won’t void for any of this
Thanks
Can you still left your truck after adding a bigger tank ?
yes sir , its lifted now too
Why do you turn of traction control?
Habit from my 2015 LML, always hopped in and turned it off because it had a lot of power
Traction control kills alot of power from a l5p with a pedal commander or tuner.
@@JoesGarage831 good to know. do yall keep it on when it rains? or still turn it off
@@americanduramax ahhh lol totally understandable
@@619Blueman off at all times except during cruise control, it auto turns it back .
Can’t the dealership recalibrate the computer for your tank size?
I know several people at the dealers and they said they cannot. They can seem to do this for the 4500HD + trucks though. They had a GM Bulletin on this. They were having issues with AUX tanks and stuff like that on certain types of trucks.
It's definitely "possible" but not to the extent where any dealer can or will fix it at this time ( that i have found out) , but custom tuning is here and the fix is around the corner shortly
I wanted to see everything you didnt show...none of this quick cut shenanigans
Good to know. i'm torn on making an interesting video vs a long drawn out detailed install video. it's two different audiences
@@americanduramax this is true... thanks for the content!!!
Are you driving this vehicle for it’s designed capability, which is to tow, or are you driving this vehicle to make a statement? Your massive tank just took away from tow capacity. Why do this?
56G tank minus the 36G OEM tank is 20G extra when its full of fuel. doesn't stay this way often. tank itself is nearly as light as the OEM tank empty. At 7LB per gallon, that's 140LB's extra when I am full of fuel completely.
that's like saying a kid and a car seat in the back lower towing capacity
@@americanduramax fair enough, hey brother thanks for the reply. You have been straight up in all your comments and content, really appreciated!
Airbags wouldn’t fit smh
Readylift air bags wont fit
