I have a trailer with 3 ft high metal sides, so I just strap it down and transport it in a vertical position so that I don't have to remove the hand pump.

*Here's a photo Tuthill Pump

*Here is the Pump I got from Northern tool it's reg $99.99 also but I got it on sale for 69.99.
Plumb either pump with the fittings shown on my pump and get a 55 gallon drum and you won't have to bother with taking the gas walker to get it filled.

Mount the pump to a shelf or stand not the walker as shown here.Click Here

1* Don't take the walker anywhere to get it filled /leave it set connected to the set up like i do with this white drum.
2*Forget all this hassle with the walker leave it at home on the set up and take the 55 gallon drum to the fuel place and put 29 gallons of fuel in it.
when you get home stick the extra suction hose on the pump into the 55 gallon drum and the fill nozzle in the fill hole of the walker and pump the fuel out of the 55 gallon drum into the walker then set the empty drum off the trailer and yer all done with no muss no fuss.
