when a guy has the big equipment down there, one has to brag a little,,, big tank down in the cellar, that is..:)

I loved the auxiliary fuel pump on my 03. hooked up to the 275 oil storage tank in cellar, with 3/8 copper tube and extra spin on oil filter, full of fuel, never had to worry about day tank going dry, as sensor maintains 3/4 tank consistently. low rpm almost lulls you to sleep at night, as...

mep-003, what a life saver, after Sandy struck, no power for 5 days, at everyone elses place that is. first time use, ran great, lots of capacity, rarely used more than 30%. love that brute, best few hundred $ I spent in a long time. thanks everyone for your advice.
