🌾 Lawn Mower Siphon Pump - Efficient Syphon for Petrol, Water, Alcohol, and More - Manual Pumping (By Luigi's) Review

Just returned. A constant flow is not maintained. A few other reviews have noted this, and a few people seem to have accepted it ("It's okay - just keep pressing the lightbulb"). No, that's not how siphon pumps should work - once the flow starts, it should continue without the need for further compression. Aside from the hassle of constantly squeezing the bulb (and the time it takes to empty the tank that way), the constant squeezing will cause the bulb to fail sooner rather than later. I have…

I had to drain my snow thrower and put it away for the summer. I didn't want to try to lift it, tip it, pour gas into a can or into a lawnmower. I KNEW how it would turn out.

No big deal, it worked. I was afraid the fuel would eat up the plastic, so I poured soapy water into a bucket and drained it to…

Compare this to various complex hand pumps that try too hard to adapt to different hoses etc but work poorly, are flexible and opaque so you can't see what's…

I bought this pump to empty my dog's paddling pool every few days so it doesn't become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. I'm lucky enough to have a downspout near his pool so I left the "outlet" end of the pump in the drain and it works great. I placed about two feet of vinyl tubing from the hardware store on the "outlet" side so it was comfortably under the water inlet and the siphoning effect was strong. The extra hose may not be needed if the drain hole is at floor level. When I need to…
