Do they sell any devices?

[Tom McCarthy]

I tried to use the opposite side as a vent one time. I found that I
fertilized the other island with diesel when I kept the pump on
high. In other words, open two caps and you backwash in stereo.

I pump on the middle setting at the truck pumps. The backwash, if
any, is minimal. I have replaced only one pair of shoes and clothing
in 4.5 years. If you want to live on the edge, pump on high and
listen close to the fill pipe to guess when it will back up and shut
the flow off just in time to avoid a bath. I love doing that. Don't
ask my batting average.

best. You know they are still forecasting $200.00 a barrell for
crude oil. That will double our cost at least. What a miserble
future we are looking at.
