Tap out of the top with a 120 V electric pump with the switch in the storage room, run a pipe/hose through the wall and over to the 55 gallon drum. Top off the aux tank every 48 hours of use or so , based on the fuel consumption.
There will be full walls and a roof on it when finished. It will be 'open' on the end opposite the stud wall in the picture and I will also have a small trailer stored in there.
Finally got the 600 gallon fuel pod home and put into place. Need to finish up the shed to get it out of the weather but that may not happen till spring.
..or why we do not have some manuals, or have had manuals removed per DOD 'guidance'.
Distribute only as per the following distribution restriction statement as defined in Chapter 17 of DA Pam 25-40, Army Publishing: Action Officers Guide.

Or use Opti-Lube. One gallon of that will treat up to 512 gallons of diesel. I just bought a 5 gallon bucket for the club, with shipping it worked out to $54.49 a gallon. On a per gallon of diesel basis it's cheaper than motor oil or two stroke!
"Somebody" will insure it, it just depends on how much will it cost you! Antique auto insurance for occasional use only is much cheaper than commercial rates mainly because of the number of hours per day (and miles driven per year) it will spend on the roads. I have antique auto insurance and...

There is a story on here somewhere about an individual who combined the Army registration number, model number and serial number to get a 17 'digit' number for the serial number, and told them it was a Kaiser-Jeep. They found 'Kaiser' in the system and were presented with a 17 character VIN, so...
Mark your calendar for Labor Day weekend. That's when the VA MV Rally takes place 10 miles west of Madison at the Graves Mountain Lodge. You can contact Cabell (member @CGarbee here) for more info on the rally.
Florida you should be good if it already has a title and tags. Take the paperwork in and pay the fees and you walk out. Insurance is a slightly different question, but there are plenty of Florida members that have insurance, so I'll let them speak up on that subject - every state is different...
Which is why the farm tractors go so many hours between overhauls, 8,000 hours at 30 mph is 240,000 miles, 14,000 hours would be 420,000 miles, but those tractors rarely get revved over 2100 rpm, and the compression ratio is less than the multi-fuel.
The same engine block was used in the Oliver tractors, which went 8000-14000 hours between overhauls. Of course they were not multi-fuel, did not have as high a compression ratio, and were used most every day, but I doubt they got the rpm's up very high.
