All installation instructions for all Pinellas Power Products kits are in an easy to follow step by step video, on a (USB flash-drive) included in each kit. Please take a moment to watch the product videos above to see all the features this product has to offer.

Our Champion 3100 Extended Run Time Fuel Kit was specifically developed to work correctly with the Champion 3100 Watt inverter generators. It is not a through the cap, one size fits all, or a cheap gravity feed system. Our kits use an internal fuel pump included in the kit to transfer fuel so the remote tank does not need to be higher than the generator to work correctly. Simply place the remote tank on the ground next to the generator then connect the fuel hose and you are all set. It is very important that you use only the components supplied in the kit, do not mix and match with locally improvised items due to the fact that they may not be 100% compatible and therefore inhibit performance of the kit. We do our best to select the highest quality components for our kits, for example we tested several different brands of prime ball hose before we chose the Yamaha hose due to the fact that it outlast the other brands and it stays more flexible in cold temperatures.

Convenience
You will never have to shut down your generator to refuel again. Our fuel transfer system is fully automatic and uses a vacuum type fuel pump so it can be used safely while unattended. Our Champion 3100 Extended Run Time Fuel Kit is designed to alternate from one tank to the next while the generator is still running. Our kit will allow you to alternate between as many tanks of any size you choose. Based on manufacturer fuel consumption claims with a 6 gallon fuel tank you can run up to 13 hours at full load or 26 hours at ½ load before alternating to the next fuel tank.

Safety
You will never have to risk personal injury again pouring gasoline into a hot generator. With our REMOTE AUXILIARY FUEL TANK SYSTEM you can just switch to a remote fuel supply more safely at a distance of up to 10 feet away from this generator.

Compatibility
This product has been validated for use on gasoline versions of this generator only. It is not recommended for use on propane or dual fuel versions of this generator.

We Recommend The fuel tank itself is not included in this kit due to the fact that it seems no two customers need the exact same size fuel tank. Below is a link that may help you find the proper sized fuel tank for your needs. Due to quality control issues with many of the different brands of fuel tanks, I recommend using the Flo N’ Go fuel caddy as a fuel tank. Please note, the fuel caddy will have to be standing upright when you are running the generator, but it can be laid flat for transporting or storage. If you wish to use this fuel caddy as a remote fuel tank you will need to get hose clamps and a 1/2 hose barb to 1/4 FIP adaptor as shown in the fuel caddy video. For more info on the quality control issues with the different brands of tanks please watch the fine tuning and trouble shooting video.

  1. John Falkenbury –

    This system is of high quality well thought out design works as described easy install. I have had the system installed for a year with no issues if you are on the fence about getting one don’t hesitate works just like he tells you in the video. I have been getting over thirteen hours with a six gallon tank.

  2. Michael Donohue (verified owner) –

    Installed mine last week I’m a big fat handed guy took me about a half hour I installed a 12 gallon tank on trailer ran for 48 hours loved it everything worked great

  3. Ken LaRowe (verified owner) –

    Great kit. Came with everything including very thorough instructional video. Works great. Glad I spent the extra money vs. a gravity feed setup. Can’t wait to sleep a full night without having to get up and add fuel.

  4. Russell Bade (verified owner) –

    Two years on the road and it still works like a champ. We have our Champion 3500 hooked to a 6 gallon boat tank and in the hot humid east summers it runs our AC all day and night if needed. It’s great for boondocking in the desert as well as the NASCAR races. We never need to worry about shutting down and refilling. A well thought out product with great support.
