A while back there was a post and picture of a WW that had a valve between the Fuel station tank and the generator tank. So you could pick which tank you wanted to pump from. I tried to find it but could not . Anybody know how to find the post ?

I found that one ,thats not it. That one was to help his pump pump fuel faster. They one I was thinking of had a valve on the lines so you could pick ether tank and pump them from the fuel station. So say you had race fuel in the generator tank and regular gas in the big tank. You wouldn,t have to bring cans of race gas with me. I have a couple of solar panels installed now. So I don't use my generator much anymore. My generator gas has been in that tank from last year. It has staybil in it but I need to get it out of there and this mod would be great for that.

so wouldnt you just put a T on the inlet of your pump and 2 shut-off valves (one going to each tank)? i guess you could get fancy and use solenoids instead of manual valves, that way you could just flip a switch and choose. maybe someone else will know the thread your lookin for.

I think the one that was posted up ,had a valve you turn one way for generator tank and turn back for the toy tank . It only had one valve . Maybe it was a teeed valve ?

The valves are used on boats from tank to tank. You can get them in manual or electric. Look at CP marine, REX marine, or EDDIES Marine for them.

Electric valve may be the ticket. Then you dont have to crawl under to flip the valve. I have one on my boat, need to take a look . Thanks
