I showed the pictures to one of my volunteers who e-mailed me pictures of a
trash pump with Wisconsin ABN engine.  The gas tank looks very similar.  My
volunteer asks whether your object has a threaded hole in the bottom,
because this would confirm the gas tank concept.  He also asks what is
coming out of the top - is it like a wick?

WA state neighbor west of the Cascades!)

Now I have one of those "what is this" questions.  This item belonged to and
orchardist.. But may not necessarily be agriculturally related.  We are
curious what it might be.. Images can be found here
