<p>hey there Leo i had a similar problem i solved it by putting a larger bushing on top of drain ppipe to make the edges tighter it will create a stronger vacum and complete the drain ,In other word your intake must be larger then the stand pipe and drain pipe ,simples way is to heat the tip of the pipe with pipe heat gun and mold it to a larger funnel shape if you can understand that lol</p>

<p> Thanks for the tip, I have my eye on a couple of fountain pumps for the systen. They both will pump water to 7' + so they should by strong enough to handle my needs. It seems that every time I post, I come up with more questions, what exactly do you mean by a "cup dump"? are you refering to going out and doing it by hand? If so, I'll have to invest to buy stock in mosketo spray and citranella candles. Man they are nasty this year. Thanks for your answers and have a safe…</p>

<p>ALPINE-<br></br> It seems that $15.00 per barrel is the going price around here in Central Wisconsin also. When you are on SSI and living on a limited budget, $15 is still $15. I do have a friend that will sell me the 55 gal ones for $10 but getting to the end of the month in winter is a bit rough sometimes. It is either feast or famin, but that's OK, I'm retired and doing great. I will get my hands on some relitivly soon and will construct a few more systems. Thank you and be…</p>

<p>Leo I don't know where you live but if craigslist is used in your area check that, there are 2 suppliers for used barrels in San Diego that charge $15 a piece</p>
