Harbor Freight Liquid Transfer Pump - Worth Trying? 

Walmart has the same pump for the same price! I bought one at Harbor Freight. We used it to transfer gas from 5 gallon tanks to vehicles. Also used it to vac out older fuel out of ATV and emerg generator. It worked great and i used rechargeable D batteries. After about 6 months it no lonnger works - dead. Tried fresh batteries, no go. I even went to the extra work of flushing marvel mystery oil through the pump after each use. Not sure why it died. I never let it run dry, stopped and poured the last quart or so into funnel in a can or vehicle. For $10 it served well for six months. I plan on tearing it apart to see if it had an o-ring failure or corrosion? it was kept in an enclosed shop. HF also has a manual hand pump for $10. It works for small jobs like sucking out old gas in ATV or small gas tanks.

I definitely need to get one of those. Would keep me from lifting those 5 gal of diesel fuel to put in my tractor. Thanks 🙏

That seems to be a handy gadget.And a new harbor frieght store just opened up in a nearby town.

I’ll be getting one soon, thanks

I have a $2 skinny funnel that takes little effort. Can take the nozzle off of the gas can and pour right in without spilling a drop. Been doing it for years. Today’s “safety cans” aren’t designed for vehicle use, unfortunately.

Oh yeah, the first thing I do with a new style gas can is punch out all the safety features and even then the things still leak fuel if I have to fuel up my CRV. Looks like a handy pump to have and my closest H.F. store is not too far away ;-)

That looks handy, it looks like a person could build a manual pump to do that so it requires no electric. I don't like the fill nozzle on my little one gallon can, I have to pull a lever back and push a button like thing down to let gas out of the can.

Good luck 👍 💐

I have one, it is worth having it when I go camping having to fill my generator.

Love the idea, purchased 4 units. Now all 4 units have failed. The pump fail after a month or to.

Great Gadget for ladies as well. Light weight and very easy. Thanks!

Yes.. the strainer. How’d you get that out again?

Funny, the women always have d cell batteries, hmmm

The new tanks are aggravating. And they leak like crazy when filling the lawn mower up.

Mine failed right out of the box. The motor spins but it does not transfer fluid. I have called the number indicated in the instructions regarding this. No one answers and no one returned my call even after several attempts. Harbor Freight shame on you.
