Why does it say "gasoline powered"? - - Is this not an ELECTRIC pump?

No it is electric. It is a kick ass pump, really good. I have a very large fountain that I have to drain to clean. it empties about 300 gallons in just three or four minutes!

The pump is electric and works well - emptied most of my swimming pool with it and it will suck up leaves, etc.

I don't see where it says gasoline powered I will say this pump kicks ass!!!

I am uncertain why it says "gasoline powered" it is definitely electric and operates on standard household current (110-120V).

It explicitly says that it's only for oil and not gas. And that gas should not pass through the pump. I assume this is due to the liquid type it can handle with the thicker oil and not a watery gas.

This may be better answered by the supplier, however this is the pump I received. Hated it. Spend your money on an electric one if you can. This thing did nothing.

Hi Reilly, our pump IS NOT battery powered, but plugs into our cars power output for our cell phone. We transport our boat uninflated and upon arrival at the lake we lay the boat out on the ground and with the cars engine running connect the pump to the cell phone jack--it takes about 10 minutes to inflate the three separate intakes on our rubber boat. They may come battery powered, but I am not aware of it....Hope this helps---Terry M.

Yes, it's a gas heater and nothing to do with electric. Even the ignition is a "push/click spark" action and requires no batteries or anything. As long as you have a gas supply either natural or outside propane tank your good to go!

No, it doesn't come with an electric air pump. And, if you read the description in the advertisement, it clearly mentions that there is no air pump. So, I wonder why you would even bother to ask. Did you even read the description?

No. The pump has an internal vacuum regulating switch but to power the pump you can either power it through the ignition switch or a separate switch. Mine is powered by a relay piloted by the ignition switch.

Electricity costs significantly less than gasoline. Whoever told you this is utterly wrong. There is definitely a cost savings moving to electric.

yes it does! That being said, I recently got a single electric pump for this very reason but it didn't prove as efficient or comfortable as the manual pump. After a handful of uses (and learning how to pump more efficiently) it's not so bad.

The pump is electric and built in to the bed. Not sure why the title was changed. Perhaps someone is up to some tomfoolery.

It's a built-in pump. It just plugs into a wall outlet and doesn't need to be re-charged after every use.

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.

No, it is built to run on gasoline. If you want a natural gas generator check out generac

No. This is a large electric pump. Oil pumps are small mechanical. This pump is for transfer of large amounts. Also try an oil cooler and fan.

You would need electric for the pump. It has a valve that you can push and it can inflate or deflate itself while plugged in for added comfort. Hope this helps. When camping we usually find electric somewhere, but if you are really remote, maybe plug or adapt it to your car plug in?

The one I have is the power driven one I believe. Unfortunately though, I just ordered a new pump cause the flywheel stopped working on mine. : (

It should pump gasoline well but I CANNOT recommend it. This pump uses an electric drill for power and electric drills produce sparks. Just look through the ventilation slits in the drill housing while the drill is running and you can see them easily. Fumes could be drawn into the drill and the results could be devastating! I would certainly NOT use it for gasoline.
