I just ordered the same water pump to help pump a dug well so I can repair the inside wall. How has it worked for you? Thanks!
I'm not sure if they still sell the pump I've got. It looks like the one they have now is 79cc, not 98cc. Not sure if it would make a difference since the motor never bogs down. I have a 275 gallon IBC and the pump will fill it in a couple of minutes, 5 at most. Much faster than I was expecting. The only time I had a problem I had was it wouldn't start this spring but it was because I never used it last year and the gas was bad. Once the tank and the fuel bowl was drained it started right up and ran great.
I was told to make sure it always had water in the pump to avoid wearing out the pump seal. I use a rigid plastic hose from a pool vac with a brass check valve (like you would find on a well water line).
