I'm not sure the best place to put this so if this isn't it feel free to move it.
I was given a very barely used Flo-N-Go gas caddy. The hose was hard as a rock because it sat around for so long so I replaced it all and cleaned the tank. Originally I was hoping to be able to put a little air pressure in it from the top to get flow from the bottom up into the tractor. It worked but I was not comfortable at all with how much pressure I had to put in it to get a decent flow. I also don't have a great way to use a gravity feed on it either. So I got this drill pump from Harbor freight mainly to see how well a pump would work. I emptied about 2 gallons in probably 15-20 seconds. The pictures are just of it in a test setup. I'll probably get some more hose and put the pump in the middle and attach it to the tank or something of that nature. Any reason I shouldn't move forward with this plan instead of the 12v diesel transfer pump harbor freight has? If I can save 150 bucks with this 10 dollar pump that would be great (I'll need it just to get diesel for the winter lol). Just for reference I transfer probably 15-20 gallons every 6 months.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
