In this video, Tracy walks through a full oversize Acerbis fuel tank install on his KTM 300 XC-W TBI, start to finish. If you ride enduro, cross-country, or big backcountry loops and you are tired of cutting days short to find fuel, a large capacity tank is one of the best upgrades you can make. Tracy covers the complete process, the tools you need, and the common mistakes that leave riders stranded with a bike that will not start after the swap.
The Acerbis oversize tank install on the KTM 300 XC-W TBI is very similar across the modern TBI and fuel-injected KTM, Husqvarna, and GasGas two-stroke models, so this walkthrough applies whether you are on a 250 or 300 XC-W, TX, TE, or EC.
What Tracy covers:
- Removing the stock tank, shrouds, and seat
- Transferring the fuel pump and fuel lines to the new Acerbis tank
- Routing the vent line and getting everything seated correctly
- Reinstalling shrouds and final fitment
The number one reason these bikes will not run after a tank install: the fuel lines are not fully snapped into place, or the fuel pump connector is not seated all the way. Tracy shows exactly what a properly clicked-in fuel line looks like and how to confirm the pump is connected so you do not chase a no-start after the job is done. Take your time on this step and you will save yourself a lot of frustration.
