Fuel Tank Capacity

[freedom5]

What is the fuel tank capacity for a 1987 Ranger fuel injected long wheel base?

It should be a 17 gallon tank.

A 20 gallon tank was an option on some LWB reg cab trucks (my '94 has it, and availability of it is mentioned in a '92 brochure). I don't know off hand how far back it's availability goes however. (std tank is ~16.5 gal)

I would hazard a guess that 1987 would use the same fuel tanks as 1990. If so, fuel tank capacities are as follows:
Standard - 16.3
Optional - 20.0 (Only available on 114 inch wheel base)
Supercab - 16.3

For reference, wheelbases are as follows:
107.9 - Regular Cab, short box
113.9 - Regular Cab, long box
125.0 - Super Cab

Wheelbases are from Wikipedia. Fuel tank capacities from 1990 Owner's Manual.

Supercabs have 20 gal tanks (at least from 1992-forward).

The standard tank for an 89 Supercab was 16.5. I had a custom 25 gallon tank made to replace it on my 89 STX.

My current 02 Supercab has a 19.5 gallon tank. Almost 20 gallons.
