Review: Works well - Built Cheaply but I replaced 4 of there nuts an bolts with my own. An drilled a hole for filler so it could leak back into bucket . All in all great for the price
Review: Great Pump for Heavy Oils - 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's inexpensive and it works but it needs some help
*by E***R on September 21, 2024*

For the price, this was a pretty good deal. I pumped my first 10 gallons of Super UDT2 into my tractor without a problem. However, there are a few things to know here. The hose they send is pretty sad. I haven't yet upgraded it but it probably needs to be replaced. It kinks at the outlet and needs to have a lot of help to remain open and it really needs a clamp because if you don't clamp it, it will spit the hose off in a hurry. Also the nut through which the plunger travels must be tightened or it will leak. I suspect this is where the other reviewers were complaining about leaking. There is also some assembly required so be ready for that. But my biggest gripe is that there is no hole in the top of the steel lid into which I might put the feed tube. So I had to keep an old jug around to let it drain. That seems really odd to me. But for the price, it will get lube into your tractor (or whatever) much more easily than you can do it with a funnel. Temping to give three stars, but aside from these shortcomings, it works well.
