CarBole Universal 5/16 inch Micro Electric Gasoline Fuel Pump - Reliable 12V, 1-2A, 35GPH, 4-7 P.S.I. Review

This little Hummer works great, especially for the price! I use it with an additional 50 gallon tank and tool box that I bought from Craigslist and installed on my F350. I'm so glad I did! The pump connects to one of the additional switches on the F-Series Super Duty dash. So when there's about a quarter of a tank left in the main tank, I just turn on switch #1 and watch it fill up! I installed it about 4 months ago, did some long trips and it worked great!

Started out great with a good flow rate (used as a transfer pump) then after 2 minutes of pumping it became a trickle. Checked the lines, all clear, no obstructions, used the same lines as the siphon and worked fine. Tried the pump again, trickle and then nothing. Tried the next day, nothing. The vibrations indicated that the pump was working, but there was no flow. You may also add that while the description says it's self-priming, it's not. I had to prime what usually gets in the way. Overall

I bought this to pump gas from a 55 gallon keg into gas canisters to store gas for my generator. Unfortunately, I didn't even try to use it until the return window closed, at which point the notched intake tube pulled out of the plastic case with little or no effort. I was able to use some JB Weld and reinstall the fitting where it would work, but it was clear the design relied on a minimal notch of the barb to secure it in the molded plastic. Conclusion: I might buy again, but be sure to check

I used this pump on my 1970 VW Beetle and am very satisfied. I have previously replaced the stock mechanical pump with an electric pulse driven pump to solve a vapor lock issue on hot days (the car stalls at intersections due to evaporating fuel in a pump located directly above a hot engine). This pulse driven pump solved the vapor lock problem but had uneven pressure and was causing my car to stutter on straight stretches of road. I decided to try my luck with the CarBole 42S centrifugal pump…

I have bought many of these pumps here at Revain looking for just one that works as expected. As I cross out This is a pump. Like everyone else, they work fine for a month or two, but they all eventually fail, usually within three months, as is the case with this particular model. The motor continues to rotate, but the impellers stop pumping gas. Of course, I'm not a regular user of these pumps. My job is to pump fuel out of the gas tanks on lawn mowers and ATVs as they pull into my shop. The…

So make no mistake, this is the part I bought from Revain and got direct from Carbole: CarBole 42S Electric Gasoline Fuel Pump Universal 5/16 inch 12V 1-2A 28GPH Inlet and Outlet 2-3.5 PSI Working Fuel Pressure 2 Pipe Design Seller: CarBole Some History: I purchased a used John Deere Z425 mower from a local listing on CL with no warranty. It ran well and needed a few adjustments, but I was happy with the 23hp Briggs Vtec engine. It had enough power to mow the pasture grass that grows abundantly

Good. I give an overview and take into account that I have been a mechanic and also an aircraft mechanic for over 34 years. I bought this pump because I recently bought a boat that has been sitting for 4 years, there was bad fuel in the tank, most of it evaporated, need I say more? My better half put about 30 gallons of gas in it so now I have a problem! I had it pump out the fuel, or at least add a fuel additive and circulate it through the tank. Here's the first problem, the screw on the…
