3. Get a fuel-transfer pump system that can transfer fuel from a car
fuel tank to the airplane, that runs on 12V from a cigarette lighter
plug or clips to the car battery terminals. There does not seem to be
such a thing, so I would have to build it.


I did exactly this, but for a different reason. I bought a cheap 12V
fuel pump at the auto parts store, mounted it to a wooden platform with
an on-off switch, and put some long bits of tubing on either end. I
clip it to the plane/car's battery, and use it to transfer fuel from one
tank to the other on my COZY when I'm on the ground, working on the
plane. It could easily do what you ask, at about 2-3 gallons/min. or
so. IIRC, it cost me about $25, and is pretty small.
