I looked into those but ultimately decided I didn’t have the equipment or ability to move 150-300lbs of fuel (25-50 gals) in one shot.  So, Lowes or Home Depot was having a sale on 5gal containers and I for about $6 each and I got 5 of them.

 

My airport has MoGas so I don’t need to transport fuel to the airport – the 5 gal containers were used when I was testing gas tanks and running the engine at home.

What have others done for transporting auto fuel to the airport. My FWF test trailer is almost complete and I need to purchase a fuel tank. I find lost of tanks for diesel but not for gasoline. I would like to keep the tank for transferring fuel once flying. Any ideas? I am considering an above deck marine tank.

 

Thanks,

 

Bobby
