I didn't see this answer in the thread, so I'll ask the question. Does the Auxiliary Tank need to be pressurized or located above the generator, or does the generator suck the fuel up? Is it strong enough to suck it up into the bed of a 5-ton from the ground, or would I need a transfer pump?

Thanks Guyfang, and yes I am working on reading these TM's. Does this also mean the aux pump works the same way on a 806, the belly tank float trips, and kicks on the pump to pull fuel from wherever the hose is going until the float comes back up?

I am not familiar with these sets, but I would be willing to put money on the fact that its a very similar setup.
