Can this pump concrete?

Once you get a good slime like substance thru it, it pumps about 100yds and hour, highly recommend for pumping full trucks of concrete. Make sure you get at least 2% calcium and hot water even if it’s 90 outside. Also since it pumps so fast, make sure you have at least 50yds on site waiting on you.

I will be pumping water from a crawl space with a 3 foot lift and about a 15 foot hose. Would this pump be able to handle this?

Almost certainly.It depends where you put the pump and how strong the hose is. You see you never really pull water, you simply create room for other force to push. Also if the hose is weak it will collapse under the pressure permitted by creating a vacuum inside. Assuming a weak hose your best bet is to put hoses on either end and keep the pump itself as close to the surface of the water as possible so that the majority of water movement action is a pushing action.This type of pump is a Rotary vane pump. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_vane_pumpFor more information: http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/eng99/eng99574.htmAlso: To move a massive amount of water your best bet is to use a large hose and create a siphon. Water will not siphon through this pump but that can be an asset. (get a garden hose quick release to make this easier) Take the hose to the water source coiled, drop one end in the water and attach the other end to the drill pump. Run it till the hose is full of water and now take the drill pump end somewhere lower than the body of water and then detach the drill pump. Bingo siphon started.But if you've got a fairly decent hose, and a reliable strong drill, this should be enough, but your mileage may vary and the weak point may not be the pump.

I attached this pump (brand new) to two different drills but the drill won't turn, it's as if the internals of the pump are locked. What should I do?

The reviews for this pump have varied from positive to negative, Mine is positive. First look for the directional arrows on the pump body, on mine they are on the outer flange of the black housing and indicate rotation in a clockwise direction. The pump must be operated in that direction. Next Id recommend screwing the pump to a piece of 2X4 or a piece of 3/4" plywood because the reaction to turning the pump can make the whole unit try to spin. This makes everything safer. Finally make sure the drill youre using has enough torque to handle the pump. The Dewalt cordless I first used would turn the pump but did not pump very fast. Jumping up to a Dewalt 1/2" commercial type drill tripled the pumping rate. It may help also to spray/squirt some water into the intake and discharge opening to "prelube" the vanes. If these steps fail then you need to follow the appropriate return procedures. I hope this is of some help. Rogn

Can it be used to transfer waste oil from one container to another container, several feet away?

I don't see why not unless you plan to use it again for any other liquids especially clean water. Oh, but if the oil has a high level of viscosity then I wouldn't count on it serving you well.

very poor pump power

There were no instructions on how to prime or use the drill pump. Easy to use once you work out how to 'prime' the pump. However, the amount of water from the 'dump' hose was just a trickle, despite two different drills being, (to try a different power), the flow rate was very poor. After a short time of just ten minutes it just stopped !! It did work again after a rest but again stopped after another ten minutes. - Not what I expected following my research of reviews and youtube videos promoting that it can empty small swimming pools etc. You live and learn !! Avoid this product unless you only have a small bowl to empty and lots of time to wait for it to empty..........

Needed to drain the gas from my boat and found this. Nothing indicated that it was capatible with gas, only water... Figured I can't lose with the price even if it didn't work. Well, it worked perfectly!!! Was able to pump out the gas tank into jerry cans. Found the pump stiff at first, had to turn my drill to full torque mode to get it to rotate but once it was pumping, it spun freely. Well worth the money paid... not sure what the gasoline will do with any seal inside now, but again well worth the money spent.

Tut genau was es soll, starke Pumpe mit viel Durchfluss. Habe sie benutzt um die Heizung meines Autos zu spühlen, damit kam sie super klar. Trocken laufen sollte sie allerdings nicht, da geht sie dann vermutlich schnell kaputt.

Funciona bem, conforme recomendado apliquei vaselina depois de cada operação, porém após 12 vezes que utilizei a bomba a engrenagem de borracha desgastou e agora ela gira em falso e não puxa mais água. Eu utilizava para trocar a água do aquário.
