Blitz Pro-Fuel Station,

By chile46

"Hey, I've read other reviews here,some negative but ordered the can anyway. Dont know why product took several kicks during reviews because I find it to be great ! Quality thru-ought welding process, 1/4 turn brass cut off valve, hose fittings and fueling nozzle are superb by my usual discerning standards. All and all a great product.
Thanks....Chile' The Lone Star State"

Not yet refined,

"I ordered the Blitz 15-Gallon Professional Fuel Station™, Model# 11055 . I recieved it a day before due date which was great. I put the Blitz 15-Gallon Professional Fuel Station™, Model# 11055 together and had problems with it leaking. The place for the hose connection needs to be rethaught of and you can not mount it so that you can empty the tank all the way. Also you can not tell how much gas is in the container. I have since removed the Blitz 15-Gallon Professional Fuel Station™, Model# 11055 from my trailer and went back to the 6 gallon plastic gas cans"

Blitz Professional Fuel Station, model 11055,
April 21, 2008
By Petunia
from TX

"The fuel station would be a great product with the exception of a faulty turn on handle in the metal fuel nozzle. When you grip the handle to make the fuel flow the on/off handle seperates from the nozzle frame. You have to stop refueling and attach the handle. I thought it was just me so I asked my wife to fuel up a vehicke and the grip in the handle came apart for her also. The manufacture needs to find a better way to attach the grip. With this done it would be an excellent product"

Fuel Station,

"I bought this product to handle fuel for my tractor. It works great no loss of fuel, but it is difficult getting this product at a high enough for the fuel to get into my tractor. Other equipment like mowers and yard equipment it won't be as big a problem."

Great Product,

"I am a landscaper and I bolted one of these tanks to my trailer. It works great. It makes it a lot easier and I dont spill any gas doing it. I actually got another one so I can have mix and straight gas. The nozzel could be a little better but it really wouldnt stop me from gettting another one. I read that some tanks have some small debri in the tank when they recieved, my tank had a little also but i just stuck the vacuum hose in it. Not a big deal. I would recommend doing that anyway since you are putting that gas into some sort of engine."

Blitz 15-gal Fuel Station,
January 15, 2008
By FXRS
from Mansfield, Mass
|
"My intent for this tank was to put it in the back of my truck when I tow my 5th wheel travel trailer . The truck is a desiel and sometimes desiel fuel is hard to find . I had to attach 20" 2x4's to the feet to make it more stable in the back of the truck. Also with 15 gallons of desiel fuel it weighs over 100 pounds and has to be lifted up to get the fule to flow into the truck's tank , maybe a hand pump or electric pump could be offered as an option . Overall the tank is well built and works great as long as the tank is above what has to be filed ."

"It's not quite as fast as something with a pump, but it works fine for me. The tank was clean, but the fittings were loose, so check them before you fill it up."

Good Not Perfect,
December 11, 2007
By Rottresq
from Colorado Springs CO

"Bought this last May to fuel my BobCat Utility Vehicle with diesel.
PROS: Unit is well made. Nozzle works well, thread connections are brass and hose line is heavy plastic. I mounted it in my barn up about 8-10 inches above the level of the fuel filler on the BobCat. Used a piece of 3/4 inch plywood supported by a 2 X 4 frame screwed to the barn's studs. 15 gallons of diesel is heavy plus the weight of the tank.
CONS: The supplied mounting bolts are a little hard to attach because they are inside the feet of the tank, not socket accessible. Open end wrench or rachet wrench time, and slow go. The hose is a little short, another 18 inches would be nice. I understand that it was designed for a trailer mount so I guess they thought a short hose would do. As to the complaint that its a slow filler, no, its not a powered unit, it drains by gravilty, but I knew that before I bought it, so it was no suprise. Fills my 6 gal tank in about 3-4 minutes, quick enough for me.
I would advise using yellow gas line tape on all thread connections, and fuel stabilizer."
