Default Help to convert

Hello

I am from Denmark,own a Flhrci 1999 fuel injection.

I have installed a batwing and lower fairings,and will try to make it to a Electra Glide.

My question is following.
I have the original fuel tank with injection pump in the tank installed.

I altso have a Fuel tank from a Flht 2002 (carb tank) with complete dashboard.
Can i convert the carb gas tank,so i can use it with my fuel injection?

Or maybe someone have a tip so i can use the dashboard on my Roadking gas tank?

Hope someone can help.

Thanks

Lars

Most everyone converts the FI tank to use with a carb. The reason being is that a vast majority of folks would rather use a carb on their bike than the MM (magnetti marelli) fuel injection on the 99-01 bikes. If this is a viable alternative to you, I would strongly suggest getting the parts to convert your MM to a carb. There are parts lists to do this conversion right here on this forum as well as other areas of the web.
