Where to get an inexpesive fuel transfer pump

[mikec35]

Does anyone know where to get an inexpensive electric fuel transfer pump? I need to transfer old fuel from my boat and jet skis. Looking for something that won't break the bank but will transfer 20 gallons fairly quickly...Thanks

Manual siphon pump and a long enough hose is the cheapest.
Has the fuel in those tanks gone "bad" ?? if so you likely need to purge the entire fuel system give everything a good clean.

You can have what ever your heart desires but you can have it only one way !!
Quality ,,,, Fast ,,, or Cheap !! Your choice !!
Google Search for a:
powered fuel pump and you will find they do not come cheap !! >> Quality $$$$$$
manual fuel pump is slow and you have to use calories to run it ! >> Fast ,, not so !! $$$
water hose pump with electric drill won't work because it is not fire safe ! >> Cheap but Very dangerous $

Google "shake siphon" and you will find lots of info on these cheap effective transfer tools. Depending on the model, you can transfer up to 10 gal/min and they even work "uphill."
