Review on πŸ”‹ REACH AUTO PARTS High Flow Siphon Hand Pump: Portable Manual Fuel Transfer for Car Gasoline, Diesel, Oil, Water & More - Includes 2M Syphon Hose by Matthew Miles

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Didn't work on my 2020 Toyota Tacoma

Includes: Includes a hand pump, 2 clamps (1 on each side) and a 2 meter single hose (2 meters is 6.5 feet). The user must cut the tubing to a size that suits their needs. Review: I bought this pump to drain some fuel that had been sitting in the gas tank of my 2020 Toyota Tacoma truck for a very long time because I wasn't using the truck due to the Covid-19 lockdown so I wanted to drain all the old fuel out of the tank to recycle and then fill the tank with fresh new fuel but unfortunately I pumped like crazy and the fuel never came out of the tank. I made sure the flow arrow was pointing down in the direction I wanted the liquid to flow (into the gas cylinder) and I made sure all the clamps were tight, I even tried flipping the tubes over (cutting the longer half , which I cut off (put it to the drain rather than to the pump) to see if the problem was that the hose was too long and not producing enough suction, but that also meant the pump wasn't working. Bottom line: I wouldn't buy it again, I guess I just have to run my truck on old gas until it's empty and I can fill it up with fresh gas as the pump was useless.

Pros
  • Garage & Shop
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
