Hey all,
So I have a wide flatbed on my IDI in my sig and it is a pain in the rear to add fuel additive from the jug into the tank when im filling up. I was wondering what people did about this. Trying to work up a method to eliminate spilling.
What I have been looking at us splicing a barbed "T" fitting into the vacuum vent hose. Run a line from that fitting to some kind of holder tucked up underneath the bed. The holding tank would have a shutoff valve on it's output line and be filled with fuel additive. The idea is that, when I want to add some anti gel or other additives, I just reach under the lip of the bed, turn the valve lever and let it flow for some amount of time that I would have to calculate.
So, the fittings and lines are easy enough but im trying to come up with a container to hold the fluid. Ideally, I would just use the bottle that the stuff comes in (I usually use power service additive + Anti-gel formula) but im not sure about hooking the valve up to it.
