I can't seem to get lava pumping from the nether into iron tank, not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

Is that a IC2 pump? It'll need EU power. I suggest, though, going with a BC pump as you can power it with four redstone engines and it'll be fine (any more power than that and you may get liquid update lag issues).

When liquiducts are in output mode (orange arrow) they require a redstone signal to function.

But, you don't need them in your setup to be in output mode, just normal mode will work

You also need an engine on that pump to make it work. Put 3 -4 redstone engines on it.

Don't use liquiducts with BC pumps it sends 90% of the liquid into a void, either use gold waterproof pipe or put the tesseract directly against the pump.

Are you able to pump out lava from your Iron Tank intro another container (e.g geothermal) using liquiducts/BC pipes?
I have a pretty similar setup but I can't pump out the lava from my tank.
