MoGas Tips, Tricks, Concerns, How To

IIRC, years ago someone mention they bought an old Chevy Suburban, replaced
the (old) gas tank with a (new) aluminum-homemade-little-bit-larger one (50
gallons?) and pumped from that to his plane. Everything was new -
contamination worries low.

Hmm...IIRC is failing me this morning. Maybe it was a pickup truck with dual
tanks? Anyway, he built (new) aluminum gas tanks for his [beater] and no one
was the wiser at his airport. It was a covert operation Mogas situation
because of airport management - again, ....IIRC!

Interesting. "Covert" shouldn't be necessary as it's illegal to prevent
self-fueling altogether (reasonable safety requirements are allowed). If it's tied
into the truck's fuel system however, it might not be considered bulk fuel
transportation though... and thus less regulations.

Interesting.
