The fuel tank, located under vehicle in front of rear axle, is a gasoline storage unit. It can hold up to 21 US gal. (80 l) of unleaded gasoline (91 octane).

The inlet is sealed by a gas cap which incorporates pressure and vacuum relief valves. These safety valves protect the tank from damage if the evaporative control vent system fails.
