Guest Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 find a minimoto tank on ebay.. job done, cost about £8, or a washing up bottle the original fairy liquid style work well, just squeeze the bottle to apply an over pressure, or a funnel fitted to the fuel line and strung under the bars..

Revvin Kevin Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Or attach an extra long hose to your tank which you can mount securely nearby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I normally just bung a funnel onto the fuel line and fill that with fuel. Works great for me! One of these jobbies from the kitchen usually does the trick, though I normally have to get someone else to hold it steady...http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/1/11/20060921193542!Kitchen_Funnel.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill_vtr Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 When doing the cockroach I just run a pipe from the fuel pump into a jerry can. The vtr, I have an old squeezey bottle with piece of wire taped on to it that I hang from the garage roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin the Bear Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Like an intravenous drip. Perhaps check the medical equipment sales on Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
