Finally got tired of wrestling gas cans.

[Vigilant]

Whenever a hurricane is bearing down on us, among other things, I load up on non-ethanol gas for the generator. I always have some gas left over, which is a good thing. But I finally got tired of wrestling with gas cans funneling all that extra gas into the gas tank on my pickup. Plus, I don't like to gas up my lawn tractor with a 5 gallon can, because it's so easy to spill onto the paint and cause problems. I bought an older version of the Terapump on Ebay, and so far I really like it. Works great on the lawn tractor, and I'm sure it will be great on the pickup as well. It was only about 25 bucks, and runs off two D cell batteries. I have read that a set of batteries is good for at least 100 gallons. Although they get poor reviews for heavy industrial use, they have a very good reputation with homeowners. It's a lot of bang for the buck, and will work great on my lawn tractor. Here's the link:

Interesting product. Have added to my wish list.

I have two, one for gas, the other I use for diesel, although I'm not sure they are the same brand as you bought.

They work quite good.

I did find one other brand that offers something similar.

I'm hoping that there are different colors available to differentiate fuels, I would hate to swap accidentally and contaminate the fuels. If not, I will find some heat shrink tubing for marking purposes.

I have seen listings in both red and blue. They also make other models that attach to a 5 gallon can, but this one works better for me.

I picked one up couple days ago, but haven't tried it out yet.

$8.00 with the 20% off coupon. And you get a free flashlight. :laughing:

I know, because my hand has been in a cast for 5 weeks and I needed to pour gas from my 6 gallon cans one-handed. This pump took care of that nicely. :thumbsup:
