Spoolin that turbo ;0)
So, I've got a 45 gallon tank in the bed of the truck. Didn't have parts or time before the holidays to get it squared away, so I made do with a harbor freight rotary pump... and on the trip from NV to MI I grew very tired very quickly of using it on the roadside to top the truck off at 20 degrees or less.
So, I got to working and got the parts to go from the discharge port on the tank, to fuel line, to a electric diesel fuel pump, to more hose line.
I get .5 gal/minute flow, which is acceptable.
Thing is, I just tried routing it via some fittings into the breather line for the tank... and apparently I'm deadheading the pump or something, because I have no flow whatsoever into the tank. I don't know why. I remembered having read other people do just that in lieu of interfacing with the filler neck... and although I could rig something up that would work for the filler neck, I would rather not have to.
Any suggestions? I have about 4-5 days to get this squared away before I have to drive back to NV and pack/move to MI permanently.
