You asked for comments on the safety factor then slam me for my comment.:rolleyes: Do what you will as you would anyways. There are enough gas stations to use the in the cab tank without a problem without the keg.:blah: :blah:

not slammin ya, but i don't have $1000, and even $399 is rediculous. i just want the keg to work but i have no problem with leaving it there for show.

If your installing the blazer tank why have the keg as an aux tank? Seems unnecessary. There are too many safety variables to make it feasable. You keep talking about polishing it up for shows, how cool is a polished keg in the bed of your truck sitting on 2x4's? and I thought I was redneck. You asked for opinions, I think it looks goofy, doesn't belong in the bed of a truck. Hook up the blazer tank, ditch the keg.

OK, heres my question, whats the capacities of the 2? You sound too stubborn to give it up so heres my idea... If the Capacities are about the same im thinkin you could run a line from the bottom of the Keg to the bottom of the blazer tank... then they would both keep a constant level in both tanks until you run outta gas... Your 1 gauge would work for monitoring ALL of your fuel... Now if the capacity in ur blazer tank is more than the Keg (which is what im thinking) then run it from the bottom of the keg to the corresponding spot on the side of ur blazer tank... But remember if u mount too high, then your keg will run fuel out of the vent hole until its evened out... It will be a low mount probably, but what do the rest of u think of that? If the keg WAS sealed and it expanded, itd expand into the vented tank... This idea SO works in my head... what do ya'll think?

P.S. Theoretically... if you fill the regular tank... itd partially fill the other tank at the same time... just thinking some more...

well, there's no fittings down low on the blazer tank. im pretty sure now i'm not going to use the keg for fuel. i might fill it up like a 1 gallon gas can and fill up the lawn mower with it, that'd keep for a long time since it's over 20 gallons.
