WTB: 115v Diesel Fuel Pump

[psychadelica]

Looking for a tidy tank style pump to get my veggie oil station running. Anyone have a used one of these?

Thanks!

Haven't had that kind of fuel pump on any of my cars. Is it good? Around how much does this form of fuel pump assembly cost?

Agreed. PA is a great place to start. I've made two pumps now using a gear pump and other parts (hose, connectors, etc.) they sell and then used a furnace motor to drive it. Keep your eyes out in the back lanes for a bad furnace. 9/10 the motors in them are good. I have three extra ones in my garage! I went by a number of recyclers until I found one that had plastic containers and talked nicely with the guys in the yard, found out who the owner was, talked to him, and now I get all the plastic containers I need. I use 55lt plastic containers to collect, 35lt to travel and pour to fill up. The 100lt jugs are just under 100lbs when full so I'm still able to lift them from the truck to the garage. The pump is a unit to it's self which sits in a plastic bin. Idea's I got from another veggie head who has converted an old ambulance. He has a Sweet set-up. He filters while he drives accross country with his band!
