Tank and pump units … flowmeter available

PS: The Preventive Maintenance Monthly, Jan, 2005

Dear Sergeant C. L.,

Your commander can OK using flowmeter assembly, NSN 4930-01-108-9568, with that tank and pump unit. It doesn't come with the tank and pump unit, so order it separately. It comes with all hoses and hardware you need to mount it and hook it up. The flowmeter lets you keep track of fuel as it's dispensed. There are no Army TMs covering parts, maintenance or calibration, however.

Pear Half-Mast,

We have a tank and pump unit model (97403) 13217E7130.

Is there a flowmeter available to help us keep track of fuel as it's pumped?

Semitrailer Kingpin Gauge

Order NSN 5220-01-521-8643 to get a kingpin gauge for any semitrailer that uses a 2 1/2-in or 3-in kingpin. The gauge is used to measure kingpin length, wear, straightness and flatness of the bolster plate. Use the gauge during the kingpin's semiannual PMCS check.
