This is how my Deuce still ' runs '. I have a 5 gal tank of gas I stick a
fuel line I ran through the floor board into to move it around.
One day I'll have the truck safe enough ( IMSHO ) to run on the roads
amongst all they little kids at the elementary school next door, etc and
get the @^@%$&# rust filled gas tank fixed. But for just moving around a
gas tank/can works fine: just remember to stuff rags into the can opening
to keep the fumes where they belong :}
