Go farther between fill-ups and fuel your longest adventures with the S&B 40-Gallon High-Capacity Fuel Tank—an engineered, direct-replacement tank that nearly doubles the range of your 2007–2018 Mercedes Sprinter van. Whether you’re traveling cross-country, running a camper conversion, or operating a fleet, this upgraded midship tank minimizes fuel stops and maximizes efficiency without sacrificing ground clearance or OE fitment.

⚠️ Important Notice for Vans Using Auxiliary Fuel Tanks

S&B tanks and OEM tanks include rollover valves that must maintain vapor space for safe operation.

 

Do NOT use:

  • Gravity-feed transfer tanks

  • Electronic transfer tanks that allow overfilling

 

Overfilling can:

  • Force rollover valves closed

  • Pressurize the tank

  • Cause leaks or tank failure

  • Void the S&B warranty

 

If you're unsure about your aux system, ask before installing.

 


 

Fuel Gauge Accuracy Note

For vans without the Mercedes J51 fuel gauge option, your gauge may read incorrectly with a high-capacity tank.

 

If your van does not have J51, you will need:

  • S&B Module TI1349-00

 

Contact your Mercedes dealer to confirm if your van is equipped with J51.
