Milwaukee Fuel Transfer Pump for Diesel?

[Stitchit1]

Has anyone I ever used this pump for diesel fuel transfer? What kind of luck are you having with it? Just want to confirm before I purchase it if possible. Thank you!

That is NOT a fuel transfer pump, it's for water only, not fuels of any kind.

I watch a few heavy service guys on YouTube. They pump diesel and hydraulic fluid with these. Seems to do good. I will say they DO NOT tolerate dirty water, our irrigation guy at work found that out.

I’ve had good luck with 2-“D” battery operated pump from Amazon for $30 +/-.

I pump both diesel and gasoline with mine.

we use this exact pump as a backup to circ. pool water through a biomass boiler in case of power failure and to prime pool pump. works great on lightly chlorinated clean swimming pool water.

I saw that at one time. Since they explicitly say not for fuel......
Kinda a bummer since that would suit the rest of my cordless tool line up.

This is what I use, rechargeable 21V battery power. Works fast and reliable.

I’m assuming this one you are using most likely has a rubber impeller?

With an adapter from amazon, power the pump with a 20v Dewalt battery. They make similar adapters for Milwaukee, Bosch, etc.

I have put diesel through mine. it ran fine. Lots of field tecks use them to pump fuels and oils.
