Usually anything Temu or Vevor has is pretty much the cheapest of the China stuff, be cautious.

Seems most things are made overseas....I've bought several things from Temu with no problems....price is right. Insofar as the "cheapest things" well , get it imported here change the brand name double the price and it's better???

There's not really enough to go on. That looks like the pumping end could be similar to this.

I bought one of these to pump tractor fluid when I changed it. It worked like a champ for that, but a year later when I tried to use it for motor oil, it wouldn't work. I threw $10 at another one which never worked. These have a rubber vane spider that are intended for water, oil probably softened it and destroyed it.

It's possible that Temu pump is different, but they don't give much information and your recourse is weak.

I have a diesel transfer pump that connects to the tractors battery. It seemed like a good choice for when you are in an area with no power available.

12v diesel transfer pump

I bought the following pump from Amazon. https://images.app.goo.gl/UPM1dFL1TVc8swBk8. It looks same as the Temu pump. It has worked good. I would highly recommend that you install a filter on the discharge side of the pump. The vanes in these pumps are plastic and when they fail you don't want the pieces in the tractor fuel tank.

I have used the D cell pumps for years but they don't last worth a flip.

I may look into one of these since I have DeWalt batteries.


I will never do business with TEMU again. I bought a couple of things from them and both were worthless junk. Both times TEMU tricked me into a no return partial refund. I cancelled my account.

well I just got 2 more orders from TEMU.
OK, the electric ball toy for cat scared him...opsy...
BUT the 3/4" thrust bearings are a GREAT deal ! ALL my riders feel like they have power steering !!!Think I paid $5 for the set? I order 2-4 sets at a time.Mini farm wagon will get a set,soon.
TEMU didn't trick you. they give you your option of 'store credit, instant' or CC refund, takes a few days.
I have no 'interest' in TEMU but they've been far better than AMAZON for me.

They had NO option I could find for a full refund.

Those thrust bearings can probably be bought anywhere for 5 or 6 bucks. Or a couple bucks if you buy 6 sets.

Using Dewalt 20v batteries with 12v transformer to run Vevor 10gpm fuel pumps. Still have options to connect to tractor batteries.

I've done 3 or 4 refunds..in 6-7 years(100s of items ).. once though the 'process' they always given me 2 options instant 'store credit' or a delayed CC refund. Obviously they prefer 'store credit'

yes, 'everyone' has those bearing sets, but I don't ePay and Amazon Canada want more than TEMU

Wow, that is a nice setup. Did you make the base or buy it?
Made it to suit me. Even though the tank has fork pockets it really needs to be on a pallet. Found an all steel pallet at scrapyard for $35 and welded on some posts to help lock the two together.
Fills the tractors quick and easy without spilling a drop. Recirculated for 5min, about 55gallons, and the battery pack lost one of three charge bars. So one battery could dispense a whole 107gallon tankful. Pump has 10minute duty cycle.

Filling the bulk tank at gas station.
Much easier to use dewalt battery pack than connecting to tractor for power.

Is that an optical illusion or is the pallet and tank partially on the tailgate?

I have this one that I mounted to my barn wall.


The only thing is that I think I mounted it too high. (5'ish feet off the deck)

It has a difficult time sucking the fuel up to pump level so I am going to mount it lower.

But is does a good job at filling the General Lee up quick.
I have a similar pump strapped onto my tank. Works great. I swapped out the nozzle with a 3/4" auto shutoff version this year. Should have done that in the beginning.
