Tried this, as well as my first suggestion a year ago. My final simplest solution was to fit a "T " junction in the fuel line to allow a sufficiently long enough fuel line [with the normal remote priming bulb] to reach my remote "tote" tank and a connection that plugs into my remote tank. This connector has a cut off valve [as they all do] which prevents my fuel line draining the existing seagull tank. When fuel is getting low in the Seagull tank [and without stopping the motor] plug the line into the remote tank raise the tank to a level higher than the Seagull tank and give a couple of squeezes on the priming bulb to start the flow thus syphon enough to the engine's tank [it will overflow through the breather hole in the cap. Lower the remote tank and unplug or else the fuel will drain from the seagull back to the tote tank. Sounds a bit dodgy but no fuel spills and is easier than trying to use a funnel on the Seagull tank. However if you have a means to position the remote tank permanently high enough then once the Seagull tank breather overflows close off the breather and run continually in this configuration till you run low on fuel in the remote tank. Then disconnect and plug in another remote tank as the reserve. When this runs dry you have gone far enough and will probably fall off the edge of the world or be eaten by dragons.
I removed the air breather screw, plugged the small breather hole with a suitable threaded bolt and screwed in a tight fitting length of neoprene tube into the place previously occupied by the breather screw and blocked the small breather bleed with some suitable sealer. It held tightly enough. This tube was connected to a conventional remote outboard tote fuel tank with the engine fitting removed and with a primer bulb in the line. Initially I was going to use this as a means to safely refuel the seagull tank by pumping the primer bulb while on the move, however this was not necessary as the system worked anyway as the vacuum in the original tank syphoned fuel through as long as the height differences were not too great. At any rate you can help things along with the occasional squeeze on the auxiliary feed line priming bulb. No machining and everything completely reversible. Further I could keep on running it if I disconnected the remote tank. Also adding fuel on the run was easily done by opening the remote tank filler. Cheers.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot my login password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Kyng Sebastian Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
The adaptor doesn't obstruct the air breather hole, so there is no issue with fuel starvation. However to prevent evaporation when leaving the engine for long periods (or to prevent spillage when transporting the engine in the car) I simply remove the modified fuel cap and screw the original cap back in.
Hi Simon, Do you refill your tank while the motor is running? Or, you stop the motor, refill and starting again? My question is about my work in process: I have an outboard with a little tank and I'm wondering if I can connect an external tank with a bulb (like yours) and, time to time, squeeze it (on the fly) to refill a bit my tank. Thanks in advance for your time.

How long/far will a full standard tank of fuel usually run for?

@Kyng Sebastian It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out!
@Stanley Arthur No problem =)
Nice ideal but how do you open and close the small air hole to prevent a vacuum forming causing fuel starvation and the engine stopping?
The adaptor doesn't obstruct the air breather hole, so there is no issue with fuel starvation.

I always refill it with the motor running. And as you suggest - I just give the bulb a squeeze or two now and then to keep it topped up.
@@simongkay Thank You very much. When my project is done, I will make video too.
