[Buckeye mapler]

Check this pump out on cincinnati ohio craigslist. i called about these and he said they are brand new. they weigh around 40lbs and he will ship! he has thousands left and they have quite a bit of pumping capacity!! not a bad price either.

25 feet of suction , could you use this on a vacuum line that is now on gravity???

10,500 GPH? That's... 175 GPM. Is that even possible? Sounds like a hell of a deal, though.

[Fred Henderson]

175 GPM!!!!!!!!!!!!! not withthat size an engine. I am guessing that is not more than 8 to 10 HP on that pump if that.

thats feet of suction not inches of vac

I'll bet that pump will do all that. I'm currently using a 2" pump similar to that with a Honda engine, probably 5 hp, that will do about 180 with 2" line. I throttle down to 1 1/2" for ease of handling, so only get 60-80gpm, pumping uphill 15' or more.

I have had to pump hundreds of thousands of gallons of liquid with a 2 inch pump. Moves a lot of water. Can't see any sugar maker haveing all that much sap at one time even at a 100 gallons a minute you could move 500 gallons in 5 minutes or 60,000 gallons a hour.

Sounds like a deal ...anyone order one yet??

Check the warrenty! We have a company here in Canada that sells the similar type "China stuff" but their warranty is "no sale is final until you are satisfied". I tried the warrenty out this season with a 1" 2 stroke transfer pump, 1 year old, they excanged it for a new 1 1/2" 4 stroke pump no questions asked.

The problem with the "China stuff" is it's a crap shoot on how long it works. My first pump never worked right from day 1, the new pump is working good for now.

Buying at Princess Auto again Walker. I miss that place since they do not operate in Quebec. I used to visit the store once a week back in Calgary. We had a generator that looked like a Honda except that you had to turn it off to turn it on and the voltage switch was backward also.

I'd use pay pal or some other safe way of payment....I got ripped off a few years back on a gas tapper......
