For those of you running methanol, what pump are you using to get the fuel out of the barrel when you buy a whole drum? Mark Goulette Owner/Driver of the Livin' The Dream Racing dragster www.livinthedreamracing.com "Speed kills but it's better than going slow!" Authorized Amsoil Retailer | ||

Not even close to the price of the HF pump but we got a Flo fast pump and the 15gal jug a few weeks ago and we've been very happy so far Denis LeBlanc | |||

Air Master drum pump has worked just great for me for only $49.95. IHRA ACDELCO Canadian Nationals Top/et Iron man Champion  Don Davis 57 Corvette Super Gas roadster  SDPC 582 Head Hunter on Alky | |||

I bought the cheap plastic Air master and do not like it. Then I bought the Harbor Freight one and it has been great. https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/ "Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability.

I’ve been using a Woodys Drum Pump, it’s nice and very fast/easy. David Lanning Lanning Electric Team Mickey Thompson | |||

The air pump from HF is the best. It's cheap and works great. I've been using it for four years and it still works great. It beats cranking the old pump. | |||

Do you guys leave the air pumps in the drum during off weeks or take it out? I have one from HF just haven't used it yet. | |||

This is the one I use. I have had it since the early 2000's never an issue. https://www.northerntool.com/s..._200698634_200698634 | |||

Yes, that's it. I've had it for a few years now and it does have a couple leaks. Probably time for a new one. But it works great and definitely beats the siphon pumps I used to use. I had to replace those regularly also. Tony Leonard | |||

I always take it out and put the bung back in between uses. The drums I have been getting lately have a raised shoulder around the bung and the pump seals up well enough to function properly, but it isn't as secure as I'd like. Tony Leonard | |||

Bob Henry in Oklahoma sells air operated barrel pumps, I have one and it works great. But I have one of these mounted in my barrel in the trailer with a long hose and a ball valve. Just take to end of the hose to the car and filler up. No jugs https://diaphragm.aropump.co.u...s/2016/06/66605J.jpg  J.R.

https://www.grainger.com/produ...-Hand-Operated-4HA27 Bought 2 of these pumps around 14 years ago. Still using the first one and have the second as a back up. They don't screw into the drums I get but I don't care. I fill my jugs up and hang it back on the wall. 72 Nova "Hooptie" | |||

Do you just pump long enough to prime and then gravity takes over and it starts to empty the drum without pumping anymore? | |||
