DIYtoolifz 12 GPM Cordless Fuel Transfer Pump with Auto-Stop Nozzle

Move diesel or kerosene from a drum to a tractor, truck, or other equipment with a cordless transfer pump designed for Makita 18V batteries. Its automatic shutoff nozzle helps stop the flow when the tank is full. Dual 6.6-foot hoses give you room to position the pump and reach the tank.

Everyday use

Set the pump near the fuel source and use the inlet and outlet hoses to connect the source to the receiving tank. The stated flow rate is 12 GPM, making this a practical choice for equipment refueling where a hand-operated pump would require repeated manual pumping. The nozzle shuts off automatically when the tank is full, and its metal lock-on tab holds the trigger for continuous flow while you attend to the transfer.

The pump is intended for diesel and kerosene only, do not use it with gasoline or water. It is compatible with Makita 18V batteries, and the battery is not included. The 6.6-foot hoses can help reach tanks on trucks, tractors, and other equipment without placing the pump directly beside the tank. Its portable design also suits farm, worksite, and fleet refueling setups.

Why it’s worth it

The main advantage is the combination of cordless operation and controlled dispensing. Rather than relying on a hand pump or a fixed transfer setup, you can use a compatible Makita 18V battery and move the pump to the fuel source. The auto-stop nozzle helps manage filling, while the lock-on tab supports steady flow without holding the trigger by hand. Together, these features are useful when refueling equipment with tanks that are not right beside the drum.

The included adapters, replacement impellers, and hose clamps give you practical components for setting up and maintaining the transfer system. Buyers often praise the pumping speed and reliability, while some report hose leakage or concerns about durability. Those comments are individual experiences, not a substitute for using the pump with the specified fuels and compatible battery.

Is it worth it?

For diesel or kerosene transfers around a farm, job site, truck fleet, or equipment area, this pump brings a portable, battery-powered approach with a stated 12 GPM flow rate and an automatic shutoff nozzle. Choose it when you want to move fuel between a drum and equipment without relying on a hand-operated pump, and when Makita 18V battery compatibility suits your setup. The two 6.6-foot hoses and lock-on nozzle make that refueling task easier to arrange and manage.
