Today I... Clamped an angle grinder to a bench and put on a sanding disk. Using my best home hands on method, I ground down the threads on one end of the 4" x 1" nipple, tapered as best I could in a true shade tree fashion. I noted the small end is now about the same OD as the fuel caddy pipe...

I now have the pump (manual nozzle), filter/filter manifold and the 'first concept' which will be minimally invasive. A 4" nipple in the pump inlet (wish I had access to a lathe!!!) then a length of marine grade heavy duty reinforced fuel line with the threads on the other end ground down to...

The only thing I think about is dust in the nozzle, say I'm doing wood work in the shop and the sawdust is flying. Current 5 gallon cans are always capped. I'll find a cap (or cork) for the nozzle as well. I'm not worried about leaks at all. Once the pump is shut off, residual back pressure will...

I just ordered a Fill-Rite 8 gpm pump, a Fill-Rite filter manifold (10 micron, hydroscopic) and a few swivels. I spoke with the actual tech at Fill-Rite, nice guy. He had a few suggestions. He also said he's had a few others like me pick his brains and asked I let him know what my final...

The issues with that is..... getting the fuel up 'on the rack' and having to have clear area to drive any machine that needs access. Hence a caddy on wheels and a pump. I can use my hoist to lift a full caddy out of my pick up and set it on the ground. I got an email back from Fill-Rite, young...

Tractor fuel gauge will show full and there is still a gallons worth of space....

How much of a PITA is it to manually pump AND watch for the tank to top off? It forces the supply tank to be right next to the machines fill. This is my driving reason for electric. Fill-Rite has a 8gpm which should be great for me, they say it is about the same speed as a typical gas station...

It seems this Fill-Rite is the correct choice - Fill-Rite FR1210H @ $570 I'd prefer less GPM I think (what to gas stations pump at???) I'll have to do a little plumbing to connect to my fuel cart

One other 'Generic question'. Are the filter manifolds the same, meaning you can spin on any brand filter?

Do you think that pump will last? I've seen pricing a of a full fill rite kit being at $700 (ouch) and I'm aiming to be under $300 That pump and what filter setup. I want to catch the finest of particles and all water Double filter is fine. All my machines have a 20 amp SAE port where I'll be...

I got a decent 30 gallon drum, a good method for getting it out of my truck once filled. So now.... I need to create a good delivery system. A 12VDC pump and good filter. Links to a quality setup? I'll figure out the plumbing and electrical fine. A switch on the motor would be nice. Fine, high...

No cigarettes, pipes. No underage kids working Appears to just be staged pictures and not candid.

Old vehicles repairing and disposal. In the 1950's, you were lucky to go 50,000 miles before you needed major engine work, Tune ups (points, cap, rotor, plugs) were a 'must do' every 5,000 miles. Suspension pivots wore out, cars out of alignment all the time. Brakes needed manual adjustments and...

Married? Wife see your Amazon orders? LOL

Hmmmm this can might work for me...
