    Does anyone know of a good place that I can get to convert a gravity drop tank Wagon to a tank pump out (waste oil style truck for gasoline), somewhere in the Mid-Atlantic region (I'm in Richmond Virginia but willing to travel anywhere on the east coast for a good price and good solid work quality. The quotes that I've been getting have been outrageous. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What is your purpose for this tank wagon? Pump off fuel? Used oil? Crude? Water? Metered with a hose & nozzle?

    I really just need to be able to pump on because I will gravity drop the product which is waste gasoline.

    So you want a pump for loading? Is the tank a ‘vacuum’ style tank? Does the truck have a ‘power take off’ (pto)?

    Yes I will need it to be setup like a vac truck or waste oil truck. No this truck does not have a PTO. That a part of what I need....PTO pump filter housing and plumbing

    How much do you like this truck? You may be better off getting a truck & tank already set-up for what you want to do.

    Is your plan, to pump out residual fuel left behind in old underground storage tanks?
