"This pump has been been running over 3 years doing a great job. with very little problems.
I had to replace the plastic spline that driver the impeller , a small inconvenience at the time .
Well worth the money."

Great Pump
,May 14, 2012
By Bucksaw
from NC
"Relatively inexpensive. Fast. Able to go where ever you can get your truck, tractor or 12v power supply. It is easy to configure inlet and outlet tubes according to the situation. I pat myself on the back everytime I use it, knowing it paid for itself the first use as far as I am concerned. I don't know the exact suction lift capabilty but it did well on about an 8' lift and a 4' head using black plastic pipe. Very adequate for my needs."

Excellent Fuel Transfer pump

"Not only does this pump work for diesel fuel transfer but it works with gasoline.
I have this pump permanently mounted under my enclosed dunebuggy trailer and use it to transfer Gasoline, from my 80 gal. fuel tank mounted under the trailer to my dunebuggy via a hose and nozzle. .
I have this pump permanently mounted under my enclosed dunebuggy trailer and use it to transfer Gasoline, from my 80 gal. fuel tank mounted under the trailer to my dunebuggy via a hose and nozzle. .
Filling up my dunebuggy is very fast at 10 GPM compared to electric auto engine fuel pumps. It's only drawback is that it's noisy but, since it pumps fuel extra fast, you don't have to listen to it for very long.
In conclusion. EXCELLENT PUMP"

"I bought this pump 2 years ago, and it's never let me down!!! I've used this little guy for onsite fuel transfers (pickup to dozer etc.) And it comes in handy for moving fuel from the main cells to aux. units (refer, pony tanks.) I used a 5/8 inch hose in and out with no problems, even with a 6 foot draw line. An aluminium draw tube helps if your hose wants to curl up, and a 5 gallon bucket makes it easy to carry the pump around and store it without the left-over fuel draining where you don't want it."

SUPER PUMP!
,November 17, 2008
By Greaseman
from Texas
"I have two of these. Used one for collecting WVO and the other for pumping the processed biodiesel. I have changed the bio pump to a 110V system and now use both to collect WVO. Have been using them non stop for 7 months now and the only problem was the in line fuse melted on one of them while pumping some really thick WVO. I removed the fuse and it pumps great. That probably wasn't the best way to make the repair though. I think you could pump an entire chicken leg through these things they are great!!!"
