Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

has any one used anything like this as a tank

Never seen one in a WVO install; the price really isn't that attractive. And unless properly installed you'll have an installation handling 400lbs of shifting fuel.

Did consider building a false floor in the Delica to house a big tank, but too many little details made it a poor choice compared to a hard sided tank. For a long trip though it may be viable option, if you beef up your springs to accommodate the added weight of the tank bag and your gear.

Ari (Afteroil) has the right idea, process on route – sure wish I’d had a cool rear tire carrier like his!

But you could sleep on it too and keep yer WVO Warm
If you do put this in as a bed I will do a Disco Ball and Lava Light install free!

BcDelica is right about the shifting though,its called "free surface effect" in the marine shipping industry
If say the bag was a third full that would be alot of room for the contents to gather speed ,say in a sharp turn or heavy braking and then would add its weight and shape to the bad side.Like an Amoeba of inertial lameness trying to flip yer Deli. Bigger tanks will usually have baffles or seperate compartment within the tank to stop this kind of effect.


Could use something like that for land storage though,the cool thing being you could eliminate excess air easily.

I know alot of air matress designs have seperate chambers, but I will let someone else try using one of those first, the possible mess factor scares me to much!

Right on
