I am in the process of setting up a fuel tank for fueling tractors, and have been exploring my fuel transfer possibilities. I have used hand crank pumps, electric pumps, and air to move fuel in the past, and air is my preference. My question is, is it safe to use air with a tank that is not designed for pressure. In other words, the air diesel tank that i have used in the past was an old ammonia tank that was built for pressure. But what I have on hand to use now is an old 250 gal heating oil tank. As i understand these tanks are pressure tested to 5psi when they are made, and 3 psi would be plenty for fueling tractors...
Opinions... Is this safe or utterly stupid?
feel free to be honest!
Thanks, and have a Merry Christmas
