Hello Everyone,
I have an mep-802a. Last summer I got the wires trenched with an inlet box and then a transfer switch inside my house. Everything is safe and working good. Had an electrician do some of the work and look everything over that I did.
Now it's time for me to get ready for any future serious outages and get some fuel storage together.
Right now I just have 2x 5 gallon jugs. I would like to get a 55 gallon drum and the bung adapter.
My question is this. How do you guys transfer fuel from the gas station to your drums? Do I need to get a truckbed fuel tank? Can I get another 55 gallon drum and put it in the bed of a truck?
Also, my local heating oil dealer will only deliver more than 150 gallons and they will not fill drums.
Thanks for any advice.
