TaskStar 12V Electric Diesel Transfer Pump Kit — 13 GPM, 160W Copper Motor, Portable 12V Fuel Pump for Diesel & Kerosene

TaskStar's 12V Electric Diesel Transfer Pump Kit is a portable, high-flow fueling system that moves diesel and kerosene quickly and safely at up to 13 gallons per minute.

Designed for farms, workshops, RV owners, boaters, and contractors, this all-in-one kit pairs a 160W copper motor with hoses, clamps, an adjustable nozzle, and a mesh filter so you can siphon and dispense fuel from drums, tanks, or vehicles without running to a service station. It runs directly from any 12V vehicle battery, supports long suction and discharge distances, and stores compactly for emergency use.

How much fuel can this pump transfer and how fast?

The TaskStar pump delivers up to 13 gallons per minute under typical operating conditions, fast enough to empty a 55-gallon drum in under seven minutes. Flow can vary with lift, hose length, fuel viscosity, and battery condition.

• Maximum flow: 13 GPM for quick transfers
• 55-gallon drum emptying time: under 7 minutes
• Performance influenced by suction lift and hose routing
• Adjustable nozzle lets you dial back flow when needed

Can it handle remote fills or fuel tanks located high up?

Yes — the pump can draw from up to 9.8 feet away and push fuel to a height of about 26.2 feet, making it suitable for remote fueling points and elevated tanks. The robust 160W copper motor maintains steady output in a wide temperature range.

• Suction lift: up to 9.8 ft for remote sourcing
• Discharge head: up to 26.2 ft for high-position tanks
• 160W copper motor for reliable performance in varied climates
• Pre-drilled base simplifies secure mounting at job sites

What fluids are safe to use and what safety features are included?

The kit is compatible with diesel, kerosene, machine oil, and transformer oil — it is not intended for gasoline, alcohol, LPG, or water. Safety and cleanliness are supported by a mesh inlet filter, an adjustable shutoff nozzle, and clear usage limits to prevent overheating.
