Anyone know of a 12volt pump that will do more than 40 litres/min, filling our combine seems to take forever when just waiting, but I’ve never seen a faster one anywhere yet.

Is the filler neck on the combine tank bigger enough to put 2 filler nozzles in at a time allowing you to run 2 x 40 ltrs pumps.

Should speed things up a bit...not cheap tho but time is money when running a combine.

Bell kit is good in my experience. Our pump/meter/hose is still going well after 8/10 years.

We hot a 120l/m from Spalding years ago it's shifted a lot of fuel through our bowser and still going fine

Our piusi pump on main tank is near 1 million litres. Which is slightly worrying. But has been trouble free.
For filling combine just put a decent size fitting on a ibc. Take telehandler or loader out to field and use gravity. Fills quickly.

We tow the bowser with our service pickup with the adblue tank on the back. Your IBC idea would be fine if the farm was in a ring fence, but its far from that...

I've had 2 of these. Very fast pumps but they do pull a lot of current. Best run clipped to the battery of a running engine.
