Hands-Free Pumping

Pumping Handsfree

No need to fiddle with your gas can or worry about leaks while you siphon from it. Instead, set it and forget it with this automatic fuel pump. The nozzle has a clip that attaches it to the tank of your vehicle, preventing it from falling out and causing a spill. Once everything is in place, just press the "On" button and the auto-stop sensor in the nozzle will detect when the tank is full and shut the pump off on its own.

Video Transcript for Review of TeraPump Fuel Transfer Pump - Battery Powered Fuel Transfer Pump - TE87VR

Hi everyone, Steve here with etrailer. Today, we're taking a look at the Terra Pump battery-powered fuel transfer pump for gas cans and racing utility jugs. Now, folks, this is gonna let you transfer gas from your can to your vehicle easily and efficiently. It's perfect for racetrack, compatible with a large variety of other liquids and different gas containers, runs on four batteries that are AA, not included. We do sell 'em separately, item number DU58QR, if you need some, and this is gonna allow you to transfer approximately up to about 125 gallons of fuel or liquids that are approved with one full charge set of four AA batteries, again, not included. So this is gonna go on.

You have, obviously, the fill nozzle here. You can have it click on here so it doesn't come off, and then it does have an auto shut off sensor inside of here so when the tank's full, it's gonna automatically shut off, (nozzle clicks) and you do have the actual pump itself that goes down inside the tank, and then you have the cap here, which this will adapt to (pump thuds) and go on like such. So again, very easy to use, very easy to operate, this is the Terra Pump battery-powered fuel transfer pump. Folks, as always, I'm Steven. If you have any questions about this or any of the products, reach out to us here at etrailer.

We're more than happy to assist you. Thanks for watching, and have a great day.

Great pump for transferring liquids, using mine for diesel and a second pump for gas. Batteries have a fair life, would prefer having a rechargeable pump or even better using he batteries for my DeWalt tools.

Have used this pump and a second one I bought for transferring gas and diesel, works great, no issues other than battery life. Would suggest again to use rechargeable batteries or to be able to slip on a battery pack from DeWalt or others.

@Craig Glad they are still working well for you! And having a rechargeable pack or something is definitely a good idea. I will recommend it to TeraPump and see what they say. ^___^

It’s awesome
by:
Essential to transfer gas or diesel to the truck, tractor or to get fine control filling a diesel heater, uses AA batteries and lasts a fair amount of time til they need to be recharged. Auto shut-off is great. Highly recommend.
by:
I'm sure there are better devices out there, but the important thing is that this one works well, as promised.

Used the pump to transfer fuel to lawn mower. Worked as expected. Very pleased with the pump, didn’t have to lift that heavy gas can and use a funnel. Was always either guessing when the tank was full or overfilling the tank and leaking fuel on garage floor. This pump has a shut off handle that stops filling when you release the handle. Excellent product.
by:
This makes fuel transfer into small gas tank engines a lot easier and no mess. Works great on my VP gas jugs with no leaking.
by:
Works well transferring diesel from truck bed tank to OEM tank. I didn't want to alter the bed with holes or alter OEM tank with fuel line modifications while in warranty. This was solution I chose and it worked perfect.
by:
works fine. Would buy again. It's a lot easier than grappling a 5 gal can.
by:
they fit very hard on my VP race jugs and they leak right at the jug. The large black part that screws onto the jug is kinda junk. Not reliable to not leak if tipped just very little and very hard to screw on without cross threading.

I am shocked to hear this Brad. I have recommended this to people before and have had great feedback. Did you make sure the threads are clean? I would also make sure that you are not over tightening, that could be causing the leaking as well. Please let me know if this does the trick.

by:
I like it. It is used to fuel my farm tractor. It was very hard to get the can up onto the tractor and pour it. This pump is so nice I just set the fuel can on the floor board and the nozzle reaches the fuel tank. I should have bought this product years ago.

It is still working good. I did have a problem lately as the batteries corroded. Not the units problem. I now keep the batterys in a plastic bag.

@Ac Well I am glad it is still working good for you, and it sounds like you already found a solution to your problem! I saw that you use this on your farm tractor! That's a pretty cool application, I mainly se this used a lot on jet ski trailers. Easy way to fuel them up on the trailer before you drop it in the water. With a farm tractor you must get some pretty frequent use with it?
by:
This unit as worked so well, I have told several people to purchase it. My wife can fill her own lawn tractor now and doesn't have to wait for me to come home. It is awesome.
by:
At first blush....unimpressed. everything is plastic....which by itself may not be bad....but it's thin and likely not going to hold up to cold or any kind of impact. Haven't tried it yet but even good performance won't make the materials better.

Not good. Have used it several times and it functions very well. Or did. Until it developed a split in the plastic output tube and leaked diesel all over. And worse yet ...it doesnt appear to be repairable. Cant take it apart. Cant find any source for parts. Havent yet tossed it in the garbage but likely will have to in the near future. Would not recommend to anyone.

I purchased this fuel pump to use for refueling from 5 gallon gas tanks. It empties 5 gallons in about 4 minutes. It is much easier than holding the 5 gallon tank while trying to refill a gas tank.

  • Is There a Longer Hose for the TeraPump Fuel Transfer Pump for Gas Cans
    The TeraPump Fuel Transfer Pump for Gas Cans part # TE54VR comes with a 39" long hose per TeraPump. There is not a longer hose for this as it could affect fuel flow so the easiest option would be to just move the gas can closer to the tank. That said, there is another version of this pump with longer hose, the TeraPump Fuel Transfer Pump for Gas Cans and Racing Utility Jugs part # TE87VR which has one that measures 51".

  • TeraPump With a Longer Pickup Tube For Drums of Fuel
    Chris, you are most likely looking for a pump like the TeraPump Battery Powered Fuel Transfer Pump # TE36VR. This has a telescoping intake to work on 15, 30 and 55 gallon drums. The TeraPump # TE87VR you found is shorter and designed for smaller containers like a 5 gallon gas can.
