Fuel tanks
Did a search but not finding much info, hope someone can explain.
Does the C5 Z06 have two fuel tanks? From doing a search, sounds like it does.
Is this only on the Z?
Where are they loacted, side by side or what?
Thanks

Located side by side in the rear area - seperated by the exhaust tunnel.

Pretty sure all C5s are the same side by side tanks for the fuel...

There are two tanks located directly behind the seats and are connected by two hoses. The only way to see them is to have the car on a lift, they are quite well hidden and difficult to service.
