I read thru what John linked a couple of times, maybe I missed it, I seen to part about the pump being permanently mounted but I didn't see the part about a permanent power supply.
David: For me it depends on how much fuel you will be pumping at any one given time, if it's filling one or two pieces of equipment that would take 50 gallons or less and you plan to run electrical power to fuel tank in the future I'd just install a hand pump and not be out the cost of a 12 volt pump.
Personally I prefer a 12 volt pump over a 120 volt for remote tanks, around here minimum monthly rate for an electric service is around $18 per month, that would be $188 per year just the operate the fuel pump, that would pay for a 12 volt pump in less than 2 years, unless you plan to have electrical power there for other reasons.
I have 4 fuel tanks all in different locations and all in violation of at lease 1 of the rules in that link, 1 required tank is in violation of at lease 3 rules and must be located within 10 ft of where it presently sets so it will always be in violation of those 3 rules.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
