I watched a video or three were someone is running a cub with the hood/gas tank of the tractor. Now I can think of a myriad of ways this could be done,but, is there a tried and true way?

Re: running cub without the hood on????
small engine gas tank and hose and fittings.---that's probably the best way.--I just use a funnel and short hose wired to the side of the engine.---only need to see if it runs o.k. or not.-- will run a long time on a cup of gas. thanks; sonny

I used an old lawn mower tank and some steel laying around while buttoning Arnold up.

Needless to say "some steel laying around" takes on a whole new meaning when Shane gets his hands on "some steel laying around."

Re: running cub without the hood on????
There's probably as many ways to do this as there are forum members. Just remember to factor in the safety of whatever method/device you come up with. GASOLINE IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE IN THE RIGHT CONDITIONS. Just my 2 cents worth. (You don't want to learn this by experience. Don't ask me how I know.)
