GlennM Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 I am happy to hear it is working successfully. I have a similar tank on my truck and I have gone the other way with all the bells and whistles to keep the fuel clean: pickup off the bottom, large water absorbing fuel filters, and fuel flow meter to monitor filter. I pump the fuel from the Swiftfuel container with the same setup so it is filtered twice. I may have overkilled it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTB Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 A 50-gallon aluminum tank with an 8 GPH 12V pump is strapped onto the aluminum cargo carrier. It sits on a hydraulic lift cart, allowing it to be raised and inserted into the hitch receiver and remove it when it's filled. Then it's a short drive to the local gas station for a 50:50 mix of 90 non-ethanol and 93 10% ethanol fuel. I usually fill it with only 30 gallons to keep it light and fuel fresh. I cover it with a tarp on my way to the gas station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Cesnalis Posted May 30 Author Report Share Posted May 30 I forgot that I added a filter when I upgraded to aluminum. It isn't shown in the photo. Steel worked fine in eastern CA but rusted quickly here in Oregon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
