Liquid Transfer Pump |

Sierra Tools Battery-Operated Liquid Transfer PumpI find this pump very useful. I use it to fill my Generator, Lawn Mower and car. It's very easy to use. |

Yes, light liquids, No for heavy |

If you're just going to use this item for water or gasoline, it'll do the job just fine. If you need to pump something heavier, like oil or shampoo. fuhgetaboutit. It has the potential to be really great if it had an AC electric motor. If anyone out there knows of a similar item with an AC motor, please email me at jshatchsr@atlanticbb.net. Thanks. |

Great handy product! |
Pros - perfect for transferring fuel to/from equipment like lawn mowers, small backup generators, jug to jug, etc... when the seasons change. I don't like leaving old gas sitting in my mower over the winter or in my snowblower over the summer. This gadget has made the task of seasonal preparation and avoiding gas sitting for too long very simple.
Cons - If you want to get really picky, the pump is a little on the slow side.
Overall though, it's a lot faster and cleaner than doing it with a hand diaphhram manual pump (or the old fashioned way of just a plain old tube and getting gas in your mouth LOL).
Finally, I no longer procrastinate or resent having to transfer fuel from yard equipment. I just drop the tube in, press the band, whistle a tune for a minute or two, and the job is done.
Just make sure you have it switched off before you pull it out of the can / other recepticle, and lift the tube up a little while it's still inside for a few seconds to let the excess fuel trickle out.

Love It |
BATTERY POWERED LIQUID TRANSFER PUMP
It works really well. It makes transfering gas into our boat tank a breeze- no need to lift and pour from a full gas can. |

Another "better than expected" review |
I have a bad back, and it has been difficult to fill the gasoline tank on my lawn tractor and generator when gas can is nearly full. Even not full, it requires holding the tank at an odd angle. I did not have high expectations for this, but thought it would be worth a try.
The answer after my first try: It exceeded all expectations. The flow was fast enough to fill my tank in a minute or so (maybe less), but slow enough to feel easily controllable. The plastic outlet tube has a couple of places where it can bend easily without crimping (a bellows kind of arrangement like a kids bendy-straw). The switch is conveniently located on the top of the handle. When you turn off the switch the flow stops quickly and both the outlet hose and the 'wand' in the tank drain quickly. When I took it out of the tank, there were no drips, though not surprisingly it still smelled of gas. (I left it outside in the sun for a while and then stored it in a sheltered, but outside location.)
I half expected it to say "not for flammable liquds" or something. It did warn about not using it for paint thinner, but it is pretty explicit about being ok for gasoline. Note that the pump impeller is at the bottom of the wand that sticks in the gas tank, and the motor, switch, and batteries at the top so the electrical stuff is fairly far from the gasoline.
One possible caveat: They warn not to pump to a level higher than the top of the wand. I'm not sure why that is. I don't imagine that pump has ALL that much lift It was ok for my tractor, but I'm not sure if it will be for the generator. Another thing, when I put the gas can on the ground beside the tractor (actually in a little wagon so I can wheel the gas can out), the clear hose was just long enough to reach. I expect you could extend it but then you have to worry about a leaking splice.
Caution: I would guess that if you were pumping from a higher place to a lower place, you could start a siphon that would not stop when you turned off the switch. I would also not recommend using it the way it is shown in the picture, holding the tank with one hand and the hose with the other (and not holding the wand). The wand is a bit top heavy with the batteries in the top (2 D-cells) plus I want my hand on the switch at all times. I put the tank on a little cart that lifted it high enough to use.
So if is not for everything. Like one of the reviewers says, it is NOT for pumping out of a car gas tank. You need a long straight shot into the tank you are pumping from. The bendy-plastic pipe is for the outlet side. However, with all the cautions, it is exactly what *I* wanted, hence the 5-star rating. |
