Several months ago I stopped at a truck stop to gas up. I was getting sleepy so I wandered around the store for awhile and I noticed a siphon pump they were selling to siphon gas (and other liquids). It was not the old fashioned rubber squeeze bulb with hose, but was a hose with a small brass cylinder on the end. It said "just move the hose up and down a few times in the liquid to begin siphoning" (something like that). The thing sold for around $20.
Now I wish I would have bought one. I run a farm and always have something that needs to be siphoned. I learned the hard way not to suck on a hose. Those rubber bulbs seem to crack in a short time, and dont always work real well.
Does anyone know what I can get, and where? Especially something like I described. Or, is it possible to make something? I can only assume this thing contains a one way valve that shoves the liquid up the hose and begins the siphoning.
Anyone?
