So you know when you are getting Old..

Post by ras101 »

Hi guys, so I filled my gas can yesterday, a 5 gal beast that has all that crap on that we get to enjoy in WNY that makes filling even a 1 gal tank feel like 5 hours to fill.. For me keeping a can elevated for even a fraction of the time (yeah I'm 74 now and you will get there too in time) I needed something else. I went on Amazon (well actually I just did an internet search but ended up back on Amazon is bought a battery operated fuel pump, not the cheap one but something i hope will last a Terapump but I knew that I also needed to vent the gas can too. So I also found a gas can vent adapter. Best thing I ever did! Gas can now sits on the ground, take the vent cap off and pump gas to an empty 3 gal Case tank in less than 2 minutes!

I use 10 litre gas cans. About 2.5 US gallons. I can still hold them up, for now :giggle: but at 64, won’t be long to 74, I sure couldn’t hold up 20 litre , 5 US gallon can for very long.
I have been using some, a manual suction pump at times. It works great.
