I figured I would post a quick review of this Harbor Freight pump that I picked up before the start of last season now that I have some time on it. It has a 79cc 4 stroke predator engine with 1" inlet/outlet and has worked quite impressively for the 89 bucks I have into it. I used it in the off season to fill a pool with too, starts 2nd pull most every time cold and probably weighs 20 lbs or so. I routinely pump 20 ft uphill at about a 125' distance with no problems.

I think I have the same one. Haven't used it yet. It was back ordered at the end of last year and rather forgot about it. Then over a month later it showed up. Is it blue?

I also use this pump to move sap. Very effective. I purchased 200' of 3/4" red farm hose. Works great for me. Over the summer I use the pump to empty my hot tub! Use gas stabilizer because the ethanol gas may rust the tank when not in use!

Bought the same pump for this year. Has been working great. I have a 325 gl main transport tank and use 30 gl barrels for extra capacity. At idle it will fill the barrel in 80 seconds.

Cassell farms-

So you use the same pump to move a food product and to pump chemicals and dirty water with god knows what contaminants in.........please tell me you don't feed your syrup to anyone else or sell it, that is very dangerous.
