[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 993292, member: 61136"] I have the duramax 14gal from pep-boys. The pump handle, works like a siphon. You have to pump the hanle to get it going. PITA. I got me a shelf to put it on for gravity flow. After 2 years the rubber connection inside the handle started leaking. So I took it apart and epoxied a nipple and hose clamped some new hose in it. The plastic hose it comes with isnt very flexable. I store fresh 30gallons every hurricane season. For my generator. I was using sta-bil. This year I used lucas stabilizer with a methanol conditioner. Even 10% methanol wreaks havoc on small engines. Crap corodes the carburators and destroys the fuel lines. As an FYI, it is recomended that you use methenol stabilizer for you lawn mower, weed eater, blower etc. Mower repair shops are selling, new formula fuel lines, because of methenol. Also if you small engine dont have a shut off valve. Install one and let it run out of fuel. You wont have carb problems from the fuel. [/QUOTE]
