Blue General Purpose Lever Action

For the money this is a great pump. I have been around trucks my whole life bought this to use in my shop at home to fill a transmission and rear on a KW works great on the 5 gallon 80/90 gear oil bucket. No leaks, pump works great.

Well constructed

Assemble of this product does seem cheap and not going to last long. However, it does work very nice. I may come back in a year or so to review how it holds up. Currently, it does work well. The only issue I have is the plastic hose that connects to the metal part. It does leak sometimes. I wish it came with clamp so that I can clamp it if it leaks. I also wish it has way to store away the hose and metal part right on the unit when I no longer use. However, that's not a show stopper. The unit does work as it intended.

I bought this to pump 90W gear oil from a 5-gallon bucket to smaller containers for recycling. The hose ends are just pressed on so I went ahead and put 1/4" hose clamps on both ends before I used it based on the mess others reported. I'd say they were correct because although it seems like low pressure when you are pumping heavy oil it creates a lot of pressure in the hose. **NOTE: The free HF 5 G buckets are NOT standard size and this will NOT fit the top. The HF is larger in diameter. TSC buckets and WM buckets are the standard diameters that will accept lids and this pump. PROS: 1) I pumped heavily sludged oil with this from an old Farmall H with zero pump/hose leaks. You do need to pump more slowly the more heavy the oils is otherwise something may give. The bottom line is it will work. 2) The pump slides up or down in the lid in case you don't want to be right on the bottom. 3) The pump has stand-off feet to maintain an air gap if it is on a flat bottom. 4) It saves your back and prevents a major mess trying to dump 5 G of oil into a funnel on a smaller container . . . I know. 5) Zero leaks 6) Price CONS: 1) you need to supply 1/4" hose fittings to reinforce the hose connections. 2) The hose is cheap PVC, but it worked for me. I'm not sure how long it will last and trends to fold where it comes out the top of the pump, however, the pressure expands it open.

I thought I would try this pump because I wouldn’t be using it often and it fit the budget. Pump looked nice and went together easy. Problem was it never pumped the first time. I’m in the industrial maintenance field and I work with different types of pumps daily. I turned the pump so much trying to get it to prime that the handle eventually just snapped off inside the pump. So at this point I took it apart to see why it wouldn’t pump. The casting tolerances were so bad that it would be literally impossible for this thing to ever hold enough pressure to move any type of fluid. It’s a very cheap and thin casting with a spring the size of a pen spring pressing the rotor blades against the housings. Yard ornament at best.

For those who want to use this pump for a 5 gallon fluid film and need to transfer to spray bottle with little mess. It does work. Mix it up well, do it above 60deg. Did mine on 80 deg. Smoothly done with 5% mess. I approve for fluid film for this purchase.

I bought this to pump five gallons of fully synthetic gear oil in my RV's differential. The pump worked great, but they really cheaped out on the vinyl tubing I ended up having to add hose clamps to secure the hose after it blew of twice and made a mess. Also the tubing seemed to be swelling up from the oil. If you buy this make sure you have some hose clamps and maybe buy some hose as well that is oil resistant.

Works great only complaint when you tighen it to tight it loosens i know this is a issue with tighening plastics but it works great and will buy again when i need another pump
