Can you use this pump to transfer gasoline? the specification mentions diesel but did not say yay or nay on gasoline.

NO...this pump is for light weight oils like diesel...you will need another type of pump for gas.

No reason this tank won't work for gasoline. I think I read when I was researching before I bought mine that California law is why they say it's for diesel only. I love my tank. I installed it in my 05 Duramax last spring in less than an hour. Wish I had done it years ago.

It's specifically for cars and trucks that use this diesel technology. It DOES NOT go in your gas tank. It goes in a specific tank that passes the bluedef through the vehicles exhaust And treats the autos emmissions.

To small to move any large amount of fuel, not make for this type of job, you can buy a pump made to do what you want.

I use mine for kerosene so I don't see a problem using diesel fuel. I think the thickness of the hydraulic fluid would be a factor as it may not pump as well. ATF would probably work fine but i would wonder about heavier fluids. Temperature would also be a factor.

Yes, I think it would work very well for that. I used mine to remove gasoline from a snow blower at the end of the season. In case you are unsure of its size, the pump is 24 inches long and the attached hose is 24 inches long.

no. this pump is for fluid only. it will pump diesel. antifreeze and light to medium viscous oil.

No you can not use the pump handle to siphon fuel from another car, because there is a screw on fitting which attaches the hose to the tank. However you could order the Flo n' go Maxflo, which should allow you to accomplish to siphon from another tank because the hose dose not have a fitting at the end. http://www.flo-n-go.com/products/product_maxflo

This is a gasoline pump but diesel is less volatile and astringent so it will be fine. Just remember that these pumps are primarily for pressure and won't have a great deal of volume. The most important thing to remember is that gas is extremely flammable with sparks and you need to be mindful of your wiring and switch.

Yes but its better to fill the lines first to protec the fuel pump , remember the gasoline works as a lubricant .. Just be carefull on that.. Other than that the fuel pump works great

no. it will not pump thick oil. not even 5w15. I tried and it will not. But it works great for thin oils like K1, gas, diesel, gas etc. I am getting a second for backup and to use in other areas so I dont have to look for it each time I need it.

It's rated for diesel transfer so "probably" o.k. for hydraulic oil. Best to check with Mfg to be sure.

if you want to replace the original fuel pump, don't get this one. If you want a pump to transfer fuel this one works great.

Yes, this product can be used on all gasoline vehicle's. I would consult the Lucas website before use in diesel engines.

I don't see why not. The hoses should hold up. It has a rotary pump, so that is unaffected. You may have to change the filter more often because, in my mind, diesel fuel is "dirtier". No big deal as long as you can get to it to change it. Remember it is alow pressure pump and in supercold weather the fuel may wax, and the pump becomes non-functional until the temps go up.
