    Default Quick Question

    Now, This definitally wouldn't be a rookies nook or QA sorta question.

    I want to know if the handle on fuel pumps is actually water tight, or does the trigger release a valve somewhere in the machine?

    I would think the trigger is a valve opener within the handle, But then again I'm not sure.

    Where else could I get one also.


    I plan on making a fun project that has something to do with Team Fortress 2

    The handle itself contains a valve.

    Check out your local auto parts store for these. There are also plastic models designed for "jerry cans".

    Oh yea.

    The thing about the flamethrower weapon in TF2 is that it utilizes a propane tank, now that automatically makes you think "Propane Gas", but any gas is SO dangerous because once it goes back into the tank, KABLOOIE. Having a liquid to ensure no air gets into the line is much safer, So i was thinking of using petrol or butane.
