Doesn't everybody wish that one could power a turtle with fuel buckets or similar container of fuel?
I have loads of the stuff and the amount of combustion engines I am using right now just isn't using it up. It would be great if I could throw some Fuel buckets in my turtles instead of coal, lava, etc.

It's a bit complicated, but if you have PetroGen and MiscPeripherals, you can use PetroGen to turn fuel into EU, then use the Turtle EU Charging Station thingy from MiscPeripherals. But I guess that isn't quite what you want. If you wanted it to be more portable, just fill up RE-Batterys with PetroGen and carry then around.

Use the charging station hooked to your fuel eating generator of choice?

Use lava?

Lava ftw, although I've changed to charging stations of late just to make my life a little easier on the routine/local stuff but for chunk loading turtles I usually have mining out large tunnels and whatnot (I forget what some are doing... I'm sure the other players appreciate that) I have them carry two ender chests; one is for ore drop off and the other is fuel pickup/return (using filter to pull empty buckets from chest, liquid transposer+magma crucible to fill them back up and return to the chest).
