Default Re: Diesel fueling system for CUT owners

In regards to the fuel-nozzles, providing they are genuine fuel-station-type nozzles :

These nozzles, when in working order, should hold fuel under pressure, drip-free, indefinitely.

When these hoses and nozzles are connected to a fuel delivery pump, the pump is running the whole time that the lever is up (or button pushed), regardless of whether the handle is squeezed or not; so, the nozzle must be capable of remaining leak-free against the pressure of the pump.

If one has friendly connections at the local bulk-fuel plant, they would probably give you a hose and nozzle that might not hardly be up to their standards, but would work fine for our purposes.

Soccer-moms and otherwise mentally challenged people are forever driving away with the nozzle still in the tank, so they get a lot of discards.
