Jerry Can hand pump

Reality Check · 24-05-2008, 06:52

OK, I've searched Defender, Budget and West's on line for one of the screw in hand pumps for 5 gallon jerry cans.... can not find a darn thing...

I have seen these but didn't pay attention to the manufacture. They were heavy plastic and screwed directly into the can's fill hole with a round pump handle and nozzle.

I generally take 2 of these 5 gallon tanks when I'm out and about to supplement the on-board 80 gallons. I don't like to come in for water or fuel unless forced and when I have guest on-board some just don't get the limit water use thing until they can't shower anymore... after a couple of days they seem to absorb the theory a bet better.

Would appreciate any input from anyone who has one of these... or even those of you who have superior "search" ability!!! Mine seems to be less than effective..

Thanks
