Any suggestions for a good pump for gasoline?
You already have a fuel pump in your tank. Tap the fuel rail on the
engine. There is usually a drain tap there.
There's a "drain" tap on the fuel injection rail? (or are you joking?)
If you're not joking, I'll have to look.
If a fuel rail tap exists, maybe it's threaded for nice secure
connections.
I thought you were joking. Do you really think it's worth buying a pump or
taking any chances? How many miles do you and your wife drive? This sounds
more like a domestic argument that got out-of-hand.
I have in fact used a line from the fuel rail to fill a generator fuel
tank from a car in an emergency situation. You can do it. It's not
something
I'd want to do except in an emergency, though.
The thing is, though... you have a social problem. Technical solutions
don't solve social problems, and attempts to solve social problems with
technical solutions result only in disaster and angry wives.

And to top it off he's talking about 20 cents a gallon.
Sometimes I shake my head and wonder why my wife does things but I remind
myself that she's as smart or smarter than I am and she has her reasons. If
I was concerned about the 20 cents I'd ask why she doesn't look around. Then
I'd just accept the explanation. Even if it's just "I don't want to."
