looking for an electric booster pump to add in line on my boat to stop the vapor lock problems. Needs to be low preasure. Which one would you recommend?

Can't answer this. I bought this pump to replace a bad OEM pump on our Mercruiser IO. Worked fine, but I have no idea if it would be appropriate fo what you want to do. Sorry.

get a mercury part number for engine that runs a carb and this will work.the connector is the same as a gm fuel injector uses

Sorry, I don't have an answer for you. I bought this as a direct replacement on my boat.

The Zoeller pump I have is 1/3 HP. It lifts the water 10-12 ft up BUT does it once every few hours or so.The only thing I can recommend is it will fail after 5-6 years. The switch goes bad. Purchase a spare pump just in case. You can buy another switch with a new gasket and save $$$ on a pump, BUT is it really worth taking a chance?

No, it just means that you need a booster pump to run your Polaris--or as we call ours, Edgar Allan Polaris or Edgar for short. He is a valued member of the family and an excellent pool cleaner. Our first one finally wore out after 12+ years of faithful service and we replaced him immediately. Highly recommend.

Its ideal for direct switching of pumps up to 1 HP /250V. It is submersible. I installed one and its working perfectly well.

No... Amazon has a 12v pump that is Awesome though. It inflates and deflates. Sorry, it only has the boat itself

I use the haywward 3/4 hp booster pump for a polaris 280 vacuum.Works great! The only problem I had was finding the correct plumbing diagram. Once I got that piece of cake to install

any type of air pump will work but depending on what size skimmer you are getting you will need to deal with the water pressure, so i would recommend a decently strong air pump, some people suggest using 2 air pumps but i only have a Tetra whisper for 40 gal and it works fine.

Actually works on both. The pressure is reduced by one half when you use it in a six volt system. I use these all the time in my restoration shop when I am adding a fuel pump to earlier six volt cars. The addition of ethanol to gas has increased the occurrence of vapor lock on early vehicles. Adding a fuel pump back by the tank overcomes this. This pump produces about 3-4 psi on 6 volts. I haven't had any starvation problems due to volume on some pretty large engines. I have this pump working on a 1937 Cadillac limo, a 1933 v-12 Pierce Arrow, and numerous other smaller applications in the late 20's to early 40's. It should do what you want to do just fine. It's is a nice quiet, reliable pump. Actually works on both. The pressure is reduced by one half when you use it in a six volt system.

i threw mine out and bought a wayne electric pump for less then $50 . i use it in my rain barrels the cord on the motor reaches well out side of the barrels for disconnecting, however i picked up a remote controlwhich makes it very safe handling. i had up to a 100 foot hose connected to this pump for watering.

There is no electric pump on the market (and I have checked!) aside from a compressor that will pump the boards higher than 5-7 lbs. Manaufacturer recommends that you not use a compressor but I have had great success by modifying the hose that comes with the hand pump and using a compressor with both a tank pressure gauge set low and an input gauge set to 15 lbs. Its not an elegant solution but it works, with one drawback...it severly limits the portability, that is to say, you have to pump the board at the compressor typically located at your residence (rather than pump beachside) which means that you transport the board inflated...if you find an electric pump that works, let me know.

I purchased a flo-jet 2.9 gpm pump which runs off a 12 volt deep cycle marine battery. you will still need a small garden hose. I made my own quick connectors. I use this at my remote hunting cabin in northern Michigan.

Water pro here. It will work marginally at these low pressures. The membrane does the fine "cleaning" and will not be as effective and be short-lived unless you have pretty good water to start with (and even then 30psi is likely too low). A submersible pump with 40-60 psi is good (and can be set higher than that). The above ground ("jet") pumps don't do as well. The booster pump typically get's it up to around 80psi. Water pressure is the force that drives and flushes the system. City water that I've seen is usually about 50 psi.

I've got a 12volt everlast marine battery. Seemed a little big for my pontoon but it works just fine. Don't have a fish finder yet but depending on the size of boat your using I'm sure connecting it to the battery wouldn't hurt. That's what I plan on doing.

It depends on your preferences, and if your using metal halide or hps (sodium). I went with a Apollo 400w hps. There's better but cost is high.

Hi, I have a little electric pump I bought and it only takes 6 or 7 minutes to fill and a couple to deflate..Great Boat!!! Craig

I believe that there is a 2 HP pump that will work for you just fine, but a single speed will never compare to a variable speed pump. A lower hp will only put more work on the pump since you would probably have to run it longer to have proper filtration of a pool that size. I certainly would NOT go with a lower HP but I would go to variable. Additionally, even if the other Pentair pump at a lower HP had 2" fittings you can come out of the pump with 2" and reduce to 1.5 as I had to do in order to tie into my existing system.

You'll need about 40 of them!!! Save your $$$$ and buy some jebao pumps that really honestly do work. Jebao is a strong pump with built in controller and wavemaker. Im Being A % 100 Honest When I Tell YOU Hydor Koralia Evolution is a Junk product. Unless what your looking for is a pump that is HUGE, SUPER WEAK, AND YES EXTREMELY NOISY!!!!!!!! I made a huge mistake and bought these pumps also. Jebao pumps are the way to go for your $$$$$! And performance! !!! On my reef tank I also use a jebao 6000 return pump,,, awesome!!! Has everything built in....awesome product
