Hi guys

Any one who's running veg oil in small batches of course will encounter the same problem as me I'm sure.

My question is this... How on earth do you get in in the tank haha

Tipping it in from a 5 gallon drum using a 2lt pop bottle sawn off at the top is getting a bit tiresome especially in this weather.

been told about rotary hand pumps but I'm dubious of the old "25L per minute" claim

any input welcome

Cheers
 
One of these. Put wheelie bin next to car. Put drum on bin. Get this going and let the veggie put itself in.

How much do you want to spend?

Pusi pump, if you have some cash.
Jerry can if you don't.

I run bio, and have always used cans. When I get sorted, I'll use a pump and nozzle, like petrol stations.
 
Simple anti "glug" cap - some enterprising souls were doing them on ebay, but basically a couple of tank connectors in a standard cap, one 22mm with a spout - works a treat.
 
12V bilge pump or fuel transfer pump with long leads so can clip to car battery
 
I've got a cut down 5l petrol can that I attach with a clamp to the drain gutter then just pour it into the tank from what ever you store your bio in, mine was in 25l plastic jobbers. I'll get you a picture tomorrow if you want
 
Your not wrong - all stainless too.
If I ever break old Daisy they will be saved.
The transfer pump in the middle is plumbed to the tank or can be used to suck and fill another tank. The other pumps are for neat diesel, veg oil and the Eberspacher.

Currently the gloop I bought as 'new' soya oil from a fella near Kings Lynne (1000 litres) is so thick that the pump takes around 25 minutes to fill an empty tank. Normally around 5 minutes.

Not happy.
