    Brian &Wille... Great ideas on those fittings. Kind of reminds me of The safety pump I bought years back from Jehmco... Could modify these maybe.

    Thats nice add on for a hose setup. My 3 larger tanks are hard piped to my aging barrels so won't work for me. Only hose setup I have is for my smaller tanks and those will be emptied soon.

    Willie, that's such a great tip for a refilling spout. Do you know where to source a float valve like that? All the ones I see have the little lever arm part and I like the compactness of the valve you have shown.

    Thanks Chuck - I knew there had to be a "brand" name for the type of valve Willie showed. Hudson Valve. Going to keep that in my dictionary from now on!

    Sorry I missed this. Just make sure to buy the ones with the top connection, and not the side connect.
    At my age, everything is irritating.
