challenger Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Good Morning, has anyone got a decent picture of the folding fuel hopper used on Centurion and Chieftain that assisted the use of Jerry Cans for refueling? It would be greatly appreciated if anyone has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

challenger Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 Many thanks for the photo; I am getting information regarding the refueling of Chieftain when Jerry Cans were in use and haven't been able, until now, to get a picture. As I remember they were a good design well thought out but crap when used. Too slow and too bulky; we just upeneded the cans to drain into the four fillers. It was much quicker.:cheesy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin craig Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 There are a number of different hose ends that by way of a quick coupling attach to the lower side and allow a 90 degree turn or a straight end. These pictures were taken by and are all used with the permission of Rob Love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I've got one, but I've misplaced the hose. Can't find it anywhere. If anyone has a spare that they want to part with, please let me know. Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 For info, they were also used on FV430s and probably a lot of other vehicles too - aka "The Commander's Briefcase"! Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 That's a convenient item. Never seen one before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
