    MEP-803a. Diesel sub-tank.

    This is what Im thinking of doing. My only concern with that is the length of the boom from the street to the backyard. It is a small lot and doable. Was wondering if a jack or something else could be used.

    Thank you for the responses. Apologies it took me a few days to get back. The initial thought is to primarily use the 20 gallons on the internal tank of the MEP-803. This would allow the weekly run on the gen plus get us about 20 hours of power w/average use. The external tank would be use in...
