What is the difference between these two types of oil tank

Thanks,

What, now you want me to read the descriptions for you? No wonder
I never get my own work done. The first one is 3-way. It has 2 top
connections and *one* tapped hole in the bottom. The second one is
4-way. It has two top connections and *two* tapped holes in the
bottom.
No Kidding, I can figure out that much, why would one be used over
the other.


I have no idea. You're the one who wants a duplex tank bushing. How
many gadgets to you want to attach to it?

I guess I should have know that I would not get any usefull
information from you. Just for the record, one of the holes is for
the suction line and the other is for the return line. I just
wondered if anyone here knew the difference between the two and what
applications that they would be used for.

You might not be an idiot, but you talk like one. Nothing you've said
so far makes the least sense. You don't seem to know what you want to
do or how to do it. Is this just a pure theory research project for a
term paper or something? If I needed a tank bushing and knew about
suction and return lines, I'd know whether I needed two tapped holes
in the bottom or only one. I never claimed to know anything about the
topic. Your OP just asked the difference between part A and part B, I
told you the difference, and now you're annoyed? That's some weird
****, Maynard.

Ya know Smitty, your the Idiot. I don't post a lot, only when I have a
legitimate question. You on the other hand seem to answer every post with
some bull**** answer that has nothing to do with any of the many OP's
questions you respond to. No it is not a research project. I am removing a
buried tank and replacing it. I just want to know in what situation you
would use one and what situation you would use another. I am sure either
will work for my application. I was just hoping that someone here might know
this answer. Obviously, it isn't you, because if you re-read the OP you will
discover that I also asked why one would be better than the other.
