I have a 35 gallon fuel tank that I use to transfer fuel from the FBO pump to my hangar. This avoids stopping and restarting my plane and reduces engine and starter motor wear. However, the fuel tank pump was cheap, short-lived for this world in terms of durability, and too slow to hook up to a fuel meter. The RD8 pump is nearly perfect for a jerry can as it is light enough to install on an existing exhaust pipe and still allow the use of 1" or 3/4" accessories such as fuel filters and 3-speed flow meters. inch hose allows. /4 inch and filling nozzle. The ability to swap the inlet and outlet ports 90 degrees makes it very easy to get a logical arrangement of accessories. half of that sum. There is no problem pumping fuel through a 10 micron filter and fuel meter and then up and back into my plane's wing tanks. I made a replacement in the power cord. Battery in the back of the hangar to run the aircraft winch I used an external cockpit with 14-3 le to make a 40ft power cord and 30 amp Anderson connectors to connect to the supplied (short) power cord used. I reused the green crocodile leather clip for hanging in the hangar. The short power cord conveniently wraps over the carry handle so it's there when I need an additional 10 feet of length and out of the way when I don't need it. it is grounded to the tank and pump. The main disadvantage of imported fuel cans is the 31.5-32mm thin straight thread on the outlet, which is virtually not compatible with anything in the US. However, I took a standard 1 1/4" NPT female to 3/4" NPT female adapter and turned it on my lathe to get a friction fit (1.425") on the gas cylinder outlet. Having fuel decided I chose the JB Weld for attaching the adapter because the JB Weld is fuel resistant and not soldered or soldered. However, since the JB Weld is also an insulator, I made sure to connect the ground wire to both the pump and the cleaned bare Point of metal contact was on the exhaust pipe itself. Since the above photos were taken, I added a 90 degree elbow after the fuel gauge to allow the hose to go straight down and not remain bent.
