An oil well, please help.

[count_zero99uk]

Hi ive been working with liquiducts and am having issues. I have the buildcraft mining well over a lake of oil, this is hooked up to redstone conduits and a steamengine. Power is going to the mining well. But i cant seem to get the liquid out using liquiducts - or anything for that matter. Any advice or pointers to videos greatly recived.

One uses a pump to pull liquids, not a mining well (which is used with a tank to make a pump).

Thankyou

you may need to switch on the liquiduct with a lever.

You need to set the liquiduct to output mode using the wrench. Then supply it with redstone power and it will output (and very fast).

The Liquiducts are great once you get to know how they work.

No you don't. Changing liquiduct mode is only necessary to PULL liquids from an internal tank. Machines that PUSH liquids out don't require a wrench or redstone signal, and the pump is one of those machines.

I seem to be getting a crash when i try to link Oil-Liquiducts to empty liquiducts.

Oh, my bad, I see you are taking the output directly from the pump, not from a tank. It should flow out of the pump by itself.

We usually just plop a liquid tesseract next to the pump, and an energy tesseract. And let em run!
