TERA PUMP 5th Gen TRFA01 Fuel Transfer Pump with Overfill Protection (2.7 GPM) Universal Gas Can Adapter, 39.4 inch Vinyl Hose, Liquid Transfer Pump for E15, E85, Gas, Diesel & More

Our local grocery store started offering discounts on gas based on grocery purchases - substantial discounts. But, limited to 20 gallons of gas. My car only holds 14 gallons when near empty so I was leaving $12 or more on the table everytime I filled up with points. I had an old 6 gallon tank and got the bright idea of putting 14 gallons into the car and the remaining 6 into a red gas can. Wonderful idea until I tried to pour gas from the 6 gallon can into the small spout of the car... and had gas dripping all over. What a mess. I got it done, but holding 6 gallons in the air gets tiring after awhile. I wondered about a pump and found this one advertised. I ordered it and received it about 2 days later (very fast shipping). I had to add 4 batteries (AA cells) to the control module. The pump is sized to screw onto 4 different openings of gas cans. Unfortunately, my real old plastic can was not one of the supported sizes. I hung the pump in the opening and tried pumping into my car. It really worked! I could see (and hear) gas surging through the translucent tubing. In about 2 minutes I had pumped almost all of the gas from the can into the car. No gas was spilled in the process. I was so impressed, I went to my local farm and home store and bought a new 6 gallon plastic gasoline can ($14). One of the included adapters was a perfect fit. Now the pump is screwed into the new can and it looks real slick. Looks aside, the performance is what impressed me. There is a grey plastic pump (think the size of a squat cigar) that has rotating blades on the end. This impeller sucks up the gas and forces it through the tube into your cars tank (or tractor, or snow blower, or pressure washer, etc) when the "on" button is pressed. Gas continues to be pumped until you push "off" or the sensor on the tip of the nozzle detects gas flowing back. This is going to be perfect for filling the tractor where the pump nozzle can be clipped vertically to the fill tube for the tractor (or other yard implements). Gone are the days of pouring gas from a can, through a funnel, into a snow blower tank only to have it bubble out and make a huge mess when the tank filled sooner than expected. Now, leave the gas can on the floor and pump it right into the snow blower & let it stop when the tank gets full. When done pumping, hold the nozzle up high (in case any gas is left in the tube can drain back into the tank) and insert the nozzle into a hold on the side of the pump. This keeps the nozzle high (prevents dripping) and clean.While it calls for 4 AA batteries, this pump uses them in parallel. It can actually run on just 2 AA batteries but I think it pumps faster when all 4 are used. I wondered why they didn't use C or D cells, but that would have made the pump housing much bigger. So this works well.Operating temp range is cited to be 5C to 45C (41F to 113F). I keep this in my garage where temps can get down to about 10F. When I tried it, it worked fine. I don't have a lot of experience using it with low temps though.I was also wondering how much gas this pump would leave in the gas can. Turns out, not very much. I removed the pump and poured the remaning gas into my car - I'd guess it was about 1/3 to 1/2 cup that the pump did't get - probably because I didn't tilt the tank so the gas settled in a corner along with the pump.This review is based on my initial impression which is very positive. I can return to update this review as I gain additional experience with the pump through rest of this winter and the seasons yet to come.

Writing this review about my Terapump that i ordered for filling gasoline equipment that i have here at home. I only had to use this pump just 1 time, to figure out just how AWSOME this thing is. The first time i used it , was for pumping gas OUT of the tank of my portable Generator , and back into a 5 gallon Gas can . The instructions was very simple right out of the box. The pump is more or less designed to pump FROM the can rather then back into the can but i needed to empty the generator tank , so i could prep it for storage until I needed it again.So i figured it would be a good multi purpose test , and i would just see how things went. Needles to say i was skeptical about the pumps speed and tried to prepare for the worst , that included spills and drips. Well i can assure you that this little pump IS A BEAST . There was absolutely NO prime time on this thing at all. When i turned it on , it sucked that gas out and i mean nice and steady and FAST.I instantly knew i liked this pump A LOT . It feels well built and sturdy , but small and light weight enough to take it anywhere and store easily. The pump worked flawlessly, and this little thing pound for pound filled that 5 gallon gas can , faster then the stations pump took to fill it. I'm not talking about and old slow gas station that you stand around 15min to pump your car with 20 bucks in gas.I mean this thing filled that 5 gallon can, in less then 90 seconds. I was really surprised . Do yourself a favor and get one of these. You wont regret it . If this company makes an upgraded model in the future , then i will be buying 1 or 2 of them for sure.It does exactly what it says it does and it does it VERY WELL . No more worrying about slopping the gas all over the place trying to fill the push mower , or ride mower . Plenty of hose length and should last very long. I can see and have plans for many uses for this pump and my gas cans. Opens up all kinds of new possibilities .I can't wait to go check out some of their other gadgets. Very happy with my pump and thank you guys at Sojitek for such a great product . Keepum coming.
