hey everybody my dad just gave me a 100 gallon tank for the bed of my truck and i was wondering if it would be a good idea to set it up on a gravity feed to my main tank


thanks for any input

 

JUST MAKE SURE ITS GOT A GOOD SEAL AND NO AIR GETS IN ANYWHERE

 

you can either do it gravity feed or you can go to a local parts store and pick up a 12v pump for less than $50

 

do you guys think i sould put an inline filter for it or just let my filter do the work

 

Yes you should. If it sets in the sun it has a very good chance of getting allergro in your tank. So put a good filter on it. I have one on my tank and was glad when the allergro showed up.I use a 12V farm pump it comes in handy if you need some fuel for somthing else.===Good luck

 

get your self a fernace fuel filter with a clear housing to see crap inside it

hard line it in with galvanized fittings close to the pump

 

94 what extacly do you mean by a fernace filter and what pump do i need to use galvanized fitting on

 

go to a store that carries a furnace oil filter set i work at a hardware store and sell them but i dont know of were else you would get them other than like ziggys or whoever sells oil furnace parts. you can get 12v pumps that are just inlie for like $50 or you can get an actual sliptank/ farm pump for about $300 that uses pipe fittings. come off your tank with pipe fittings to your filter then streight into your pump after that. most guys around here that do it put a 3" pipe nipple between the two to make the filter as close to the pump as posible

 

if you run a 12v pump it is a lil easier to fill it with red fuel...

 

ecaclty, up here if you have a lifted truck with a slip tank in it, you have gotten pulled over and dipped at one point in time. ive been dipped twice since ive owned this truck a year and a half
