Diesel prices are through the roof (2.3€/L) but my backup fuel storage is ripe for rotation. Hopefully the prices have gone down a bit once I finish the last canister.

I always struggled with these 30L canisters and only strained my back and made a mess trying to pour it manually. This 14€ pump sure makes thing easier.

    I do know how siphon works. I just don’t have any good platform high enough to lift the canister onto.

      What about … the truck?

      But I understand. Siphons can be messy; I have a self starter and everything and sometimes just prefer to dump it manually.

          I’m one of the few people who actually uses a truck to do what it’s meant for. A small EV wont suffice.

          A camper shell is what pickups are meant for? Didn’t know that.

            Camper shell is an accessory - not a purpose.

            I transport stuff with it. It’s my work truck.
