Now if you drove a TD it would be even simpler, i.e., a large bottle
stopper, a length of tubing and a squeeze bulb of the type that's found
on blood pressure cuffs. The tubing fits through the stopper and the
bulb is attached to the tubing. The stopper is then placed in the filler
neck of the fuel tank. A few pumps of the squeeze bulb is all that it
takes to provide enough fuel pressure to keep a TD running.
I can't take the credit for this. It showed up as a Tech Tip in the
NEMGTR journal a few years ago.
