Abstract: A fuel nozzle receptacle for use with auxiliary fuel tanks is disclosed. A fuel nozzle is received in a receptacle or boot in a nozzle-down orientation that defines a secure storage for the nozzle. The receptacle includes a drain port on the lower end of the receptacle and a drain tube is attached to the drain port. A valve is plumbed into the receptacle. When residual fuel has accumulated in the receptacle, the end of the drain tube is fed into an appropriate holding vessel and the valve is opened to allow the residual fuel to drain from the receptacle into the holding vessel.

Abstract: A fuel pump connected to a vehicle fuel tank is disclosed herein. The fuel pump may be operatively connected to a fuel tank and a retractable hose. The retractable hose may extend from the vehicle. A switch may activate the pump and thereby pump fuel from the fuel tank and into the retractable hose. A user may fill fuel containers or other machinery when the fuel pump is activated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for removing fluid from a fluid system. The method or apparatus can include a pressure-reducing source to facilitate fluid removal. The system can be an engine cooling system or other fluid system.

Abstract: A system for servicing a fluid system can employ a pressure-reducing source to perform the desired service. The fluid system can be an engine cooling system or other fluid system.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of servicing fluid systems by draining, filling, or leak testing the fluid system can employ a pressure-reducing source to perform the desired service. The fluid system can be an engine cooling system, or other fluid system.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for filling a syringe-type applicator having multiple material reservoirs are disclosed. The method and apparatus permits the individual component reservoirs to be simultaneously filled without risk of contamination or unintentional component mixing. The method and apparatus are particularly useful in the preparation and delivery of multiple component tissue sealants such a fibrinogen adhesive compositions.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for drawing and measuring an amount of liquid agrichemical and dispensing the measured amount of agrichemical for mixture with water and eventual application onto a field. The agrichemical is drawn into a measuring vessel by suction pressure, created in one embodiment by an air compressor and valving system, and in another embodiment by a valve-pump in conjunction with a 3-way valve. The agrichemical is then dispensed from the measuring vessel either by positive pressure created by the same air compressor/valving system, or by suction pressure created by valve-pump/3-way valve. The valve-pump provides both a mixing chamber for the agrichemical and water prior to tank storage for eventual application, and controllable suction pressure for drawing the agrichemical out of the measuring vessel for mixing. The valve-pump is also self-cleaning thereby reducing the possibility of cross-contamination.
