Our Snowmobile club is setting up a new/used fuel tank. We had it sandblasted and painted, and put it one of those leakage barrier things. It's a 500 gallon tank. We want to setup a electric fuel pump on it. The problem is our oil company (that delivers our diesel) wants $1000 to do it.
I've had a standard House oil tank setup using a handpump for diesel before, but I want to be sure on the proper setup of it.
I see Northern has 115v 13/21 gallon fuel transfer pumps for $250 - $280.
My question has to do with getting fuel in, and venting. I assume we would use standard black pipe with a threaded tilted end for fuel delivery hookup. (Just like home heating oil setup). What about the vent, standard Home oil tank setup or is there a special one we should be using.
(Added later: The title states Fuel Oil, but I meant to say Diesel Fuel)
Thanks
