Gastapper Plumber's Siphon Pro includes 8' (2.44 meters) all-purpose hose

I bought this to deal with a recurrent problem I've had with a fuel line air lock on my van. The tapered end of the pump inlet fits a range of hose diameters and the pump works efficiently. The materials are good quality and the pump worked perfectly on its 1st use, pulling air and fuel through approx 4 feet of fuel pipe plus the mechanical fuel pump.

Such a simple tool but makes life so much easier save getting mouthfuls of liquids trying to suck liquids out yourself, product is well made with plenty of hose for most eventualities . Ideal for draining one section of my pond filter that doesnt have a drain plug thoroughly recommend it

This is a very useful piece of kit and I'd recommend it to anyone who would rather avoid a mouthful of dirty water! As I do water changes on several fish tanks every week its quickly proven invaluable, especially when I want to start a siphon on a longer length of hose. By the way it will fit to a range of hose diameters - I use standard "garden hose" which is 1/2" or 12.5mm/13mm but it also works well on 15mm and probably many others. I've knocked one star off because I do think it could be better designed in terms of the metal end pieces - the outlet end has a barbed nozzle for 12.5mm hose while the input end is tiered to fit inside 10mm to 15mm sizes. Ideally this end would be larger and also barbed so it could be left in place on some equipment, for example any pump that is not self-priming. For my specific purposes having two identical 12.5mm barbed ends would be ideal, though obviously much less flexible from a plumbing perspective.

Good old fashioned quality build. Instructions include many references about how to preserve the item's longevity - not the modern attitude to helping you to ruin it and then buy another. Would recommend without hesitation. The Hose Manclip is excellent and a very handy device to help hold hoses in place. I am using it on a varity of 20 litre containers and it fits all of them which is very helpful. In addition I can say that your siphon pump is the bees knees and is perfect for the job I’m doing. We make around 500 litres of comfrey liquid fertiliser for our garden each year. It is very smelly stuff and getting it on my hands is a nightmare and demands some drastic cleaning if I’m to be allowed back in the house. To say that the pump works well is an understatement. Normally, using a plastic siphon and a jug I can take a day to decant 100 litres of the liquid into smaller containers from the vats where we brew the fertiliser. This last brew was decanted, bottled and stored in three hours, mostly because I could use 19mm hose which speeds up the process with a vengeance. At last a siphon pump that is built to last, is easy to use and looks like it might outlast me. Many thanks for the product, I’m really chuffed.

The pump works great, has nice confident action. The supplied hose is nice, but NOT petrol resistant, even though this is stated in the description. After a week with fuel in the line, it's gone rock-hard and have shrunk and now is unusable.

Works well, The Priming bulb just replaces you're mouth, and is not permanently fixed, just hold the priming bulb up to the hose, a couple of squeezes, then you see the fluid flowing and just pull the bulb away, i first made the mistake thinking the bulb should be attached, but after communication with the seller, who explained the above to me! as the priming bulb is not permanently attached then this will increase its life expectancy and wont deteriorate as quickly.

The best ideas are usually simple and this is brilliantly simple. It is very well made and easy to use. Use it with the tubing supplied or any hose from 3/8" to 1/2" inside diameter. I use it to siphon kerosene from my heating oil tank into containers to use with an X300 flame gun or paraffin heater for the greenhouse. It will save me a fortune compared to buying paraffin in containers. Simple but brilliant piece of kit that will pay for itself many times over. Highly recommended.

This was a complete waste of money. Delivery was very quick, but the product itself is useless. The bladder that creates the flow is supposed to pull a vacuum in the pipe to get the flow started, but the non-return valve does not work so it is of no use at all. The pipe has a nice brass weighted end, but with such a badly made bladder system it is completely useless.

Works like a charm. I had to reorder it because it was missing a part the first time I got it. But, the return process worked great and I had another one on my doorstep a few days later. I was in a Hurricane Milton affected area and I needed this siphon to remove the fuel out of my two backup generators once my power came back up. Also helped my elderly neighbor to do the same. I may get a second as a backup. This kit has the bare essentials, plus the flow stop valve, plus the holder to keep it in place. The weighted end definitely helps to keep it at the bottom of the tank. Easy to operate. Plus the shutoff valve makes it easier to do the job safer and while minimizing fuel loss. Plus this setup eliminates the worry of swallowing fuel. The pump itself is easy to operate and works great. For those with health concerns, it is definitely a safer option. Probably not a bad idea to keep one at home and one in the car in case of disaster scenarios.

Je ne sais pas combien de temps le produit va vivre mais franchement il est très pratique et efficace on appuie quelquefois sur la poire et hop on peut ensuite la débrancher et remplir le container je pense en prendre un deuxième pour les produits liquides qui ne s'apparente pas à l'essence et séparer les tâches

Puntualmente como siempre, de hecho llego 1 semana antes de lo previsto, funcional y de calidad, muy bien todo.

Essenziale ma perfettamente funzionante. Il diametro del tubo è ottimale per garantire facilità di ripescaggio, la portata non è esagerata ma va benissimo per volumi non eccessivi. Una volta innescato il travaso verso una destinazione più bassa della zona di pescaggio prosegue da solo (come la Fisica vuole) quindi se non si ha fretta si può svuotare qualsiasi volume. L'estremità appesantita è utile a tenere fermo il tubo. Consigliato.

I have a old Ford Ranger that accidentally had 2 quarts too much transmission fluid in it. I bought this pump based on the reviews and very glad I did. Easily removed the excess fluid, didn't spill a drop in the process, couldn't have been easier or more cost effective solution. You can use this pump in two ways, one for gravity feed, other other for non-gravity, which is the method I used. For non-gravity suction, you simply cut about 2 feet (or whatever length you need) off the end (the section with the brass fitting). You attach that smaller piece to the end of the one-way hand pump (arrow pointing towards fluid flow). Then attach the long hose section to other side to the pump. I removed the transmission dipstick and inserted the long end of the hose down. Keep working it down until it hits bottom, trust me it's longer than you think. You think you reached bottom, but you will go in further. I would occasionally hand pump it, if no liquid came out, it meant I haven't reached the bottom yet. Once I hit the bottom of the transmission fluid tube, it immediately started sucking up fluid with each hand pump. I used an empty 1 gallon apple juice container to empty out the fluid. The supplied tube holder worked great in holding the opposite end of the tube. I very quickly pumped out the two quarts I needed removed. Once done, I pulled the tube out and that was it. I really appreciated the quality of this pump. Seems pretty simple, a clear plastic tube and a one-way hand pump. But these guys use quality components, doesn't feel cheap in your hands, solid and strong suction. I know this isn't a throw away item, but something I can use for years. Very impressed with the results and quality!
