I have a few of those tiny 55 gal drums, if you'd like one or two. I contemplated for a while to mount two onto a little trailer with a pump. One of the three is in use since quite a while to hold up my engine.

Thanks, but the truck has a big enough tank.  I just need a suitable pump now.


Another way to do it without a pump is to pressurize the mother tank with 1-2 psi and have hose with shut-off handle. They sell them separate. Friend of mine did it like that for years. Bulent

Interesting.  I wonder how much pressure the fuel tank would hold.  Using a normal pump would probably be easier for the fuel tank method.  I've seen tanks that mount in the truck like a tool box, and those would be high enough to gravity feed into the RV, but they take up space in the bed when I already have plenty of capacity available in the normal fuel tank.  



How about Northern Tool PN 109577-1405  pp209 current catalog

That was the 12V version, but they also have a 110V model that's similar.  It's probably the leading candidate at the moment, but I would sure like to see one in person. 

Thanks,
