Siphoning gas into my TJ....
I recently blew the engine on my old Nissan farm truck... unfortunatly, it
had a full tank of good gas that I hate to waste! I'd like to siphon it out and use it, or at least most of it, in my TJ. Any tricks to this? I was gonna see if the parts store had a screen I could run it through to catch anything big that got sucked up but otherwise just either siphon it to cans and then dump it over to the Jeep or else just go straight from one to the other. -jeff |
Re: Siphoning gas into my TJ....
Hi Jeff,
Siphoning from one to another is going to be pretty difficult to do unless you can get the rice burner up on top of your loading dock. I take about three quick pulls, just using my cheeks, remembering any swallowed is very serious, as it covers our cells and makes it impossible for them to absorb oxygen. Another way is to slide the Mexican credit card all the way into the tank, jerking it out with the thumb covering the hose to create a vacuum then opening and letting inertia push the gasoline up, about three of four times in quick secession. Or cut a piece an old inner tube with a couple holes for the siphon hose and one for a hose to blow into to pressurize the tank and force the gasoline out that way into your Jeep cans.

Or maybe stop by your local Tractor supply store and get a hand pump siphon for 15-20 bucks...

another way and certainly safer is to buy a fuel primer bulb for outboard
motors, attach some hose to either end and pump away. Check out you local autoparts place as they may sell something similar all ready made up. Snow...

Re: Siphoning gas into my TJ....
If you are pulling from the tank and into a can, then going into the Jeep,
why not just put one of your wife's knee-high panty hose on the end of the hose that goes into the can? This should catch all of the big chunks for you ....

Re: Siphoning gas into my TJ....
If it's a Nissan, and not a Datsun, it probably has an electric fuel pump.
Just extend the fuel hose from the carb into the jeep's tank, and jump it. -- Paul Calman, Hathaway Pines, California |
