Not Ranked
You just reminded me about a little ditty i did in the early seventies, during the alternate day fuel crisis. Living in NJ and being conservative, i had no political friends that could help me on the off days and i also had a squirrelly driving schedule.
i would flip a set of plates on the Big Tanked car (2137 if i recall), fill-er-up on forty gallons, and transfer any evenings i ran short using the electric fuel pumps and a little hose extension or two. Worked fine. Did it outside, because we had a gas water-heater in the garage, if i recall.
There was at least one good use of the big tank. Cannot think of any more.
