Just thinking,why not use a small electric fuel pump with an in cab toggle switch to operate it.Simply pump fuel from the aux tank thru an in line filter directly to the factory fill hose pipe.No having to stop and shut off valves or worry about check valve failure. Just turn the pump on and off from the drivers seat as you watch fuel gauge while driving. Any thoughts? Is this legal?
x2 this is what I have on my truck, works great! I do have a ball valve at the tank, the pump and filter are mounted under the bed and line is "T" into the factory "filler hose".
Sounds like a good setup.Could you explain a little more,why do you need a ball valve at the tank? Will the fuel siphon or drain thru the electric pump when it is not running? or is it just a safety feature to prevent any leakage when not being used for a while?
Thanks Ramp
Ball valve is there for exactly as you posted "to prevent any leakage" the costs of environmental clean up, is high and running commercial plates costs are even higher for a "spill".
