I need to create additional fuel capacity and have a grp built in Potable water tank I can afford to sacrifice what is the practicality of converting this over what would be the suggested procedure ie draining sanitizing and preparing to fill with diesel
 
Not all GRP is impervious to diesel. There would be some risk.


If the tank has no baffles perhaps a bladder installed would be rational solution.
 
Most GRP fuel tanks need to be seal coated to be safe with diesel fuel, and then pressure tested at 4-5 PSI
