A pump is the worst, 100% load, 100% of the time. I'm just moving water, it
runs at about 15psi off the pump, oversized inlet and outlet. Right down at
the low end of the curve, max hp required. As the self priming starts
cutting in the roar goes to a roar... roar.... roar, then when it locks in
you can just hear the engine groan and settle in. Governor never gets a
chance to do anything except let it go at full throttle.

There is supposed to be some epoxy liner material that works on the tanks,
someone will have to chime in. Start a new thread?

Running an engine hard enough to change the oil every 48 hours is hard.
I probably don't need to change the oil in that welder except for the
passage of time. BTW, have you ever (or anyone else lurking) used a
product called POR15 or something like that sold to coat the inside of
steel tanks to prevent rust? If so, does it work, does it last, and is
it hard to install?


The tank sealer is used on motorcyle tanks. Try the local cycle shop. Works
great. Comes as a kit. A cleaner then a sealer.
