The ad says that it can pump about 3 quarts per minute. Why are people talking about an hour of time in the reviews?

I would agree that it's around an hour. It works well, but it does work well, but doesn't quite flow as fast as advertised.

I've only used mine once, about 3 weeks ago. I changed the oil on my I/O. It took approximately 20 minutes to pump out 5 quarts with about a 3 ft lift.

Run the engine for a bit, or do it after a drive. It pumps much quicker and easier when the oil is hot.

The manufacturer says it makes 0.8 gallons in 3.5 hours. Plus it probably is best to let it cool 30 minutes after that before handling.

I used it to pump transmission fluid and it took about 5 minutes per quart. It works but if your looking something that we really transfer a lot of oil quickly and many times then I would go find something much more rugged. At $30 it pays for itself the 1st time you use it to swap transmisstion fluid. That's the way I look at it. I hope it keeps working and has worked to move gas. Never tried it on engine oil but I think it would work also. I would also flush it after uses with something just to get residuel/potentialy harmful to the pump out of it instead of letting it sit in the pump. It's plastic!!

I really don't know but what I do know is that it can run 6 air lines to ( 6 )5 gal buckets of water with great force. It is not to noisy but runs hot for the first hr. or so thsn cools down. It is a great pump for the price and size. I love it. Hydroponics is what I am using it for.

The pump that I bought gets the water through a 3 inch pike in a pulsating manor. More akin to a human pulse than a stream or even a steady gurgle.

I have no idea but you would be looking more at liters per minute. that would determine the float rate of air. I can tell you I have three of these pumps and they have been good, dependable, quiet pumps. I even sealed on in a plastic box and it has been running all winter in my outdoor pond in freezing weather. they give very nice aeration with a good airstone. I just buy them based on their recommendation for aquarium size. Hope this helped.

It should last 3 to 4 weeks. 1 to 2 pumps are all that is typically needed.

It makes about 3/4 of a gallon in just under 4 hours. It's a very sturdy machine & makes great water. I'm very happy with it so far (5 months). Even my wife is on board now, who initially balked at the price. I can't comment on the noise as i have it in my basement, maybe about as loud as a white noise machine.

I have been using it for a month.My Dr.had me start with 5 minutes and build up to 15 minutes.Here suggested not pumping more than 4 times., Seems to be helping me

I have been using the pump for a marine application. Which I pump through the dipstick. It takes about 20 minutes for 6 quarts. I found that running the engine for 10 minutes before pumping helps speed the process up significantly when the oil is warm

it needs to have about 2400psi up to 3300 max,,, also your gallons per minute need to be over 2.2 at least, for this to work the way it needs to

Are you asking reg # oz and time? The pump is nice, inexpensive & portable. It's a little slower than the larger more expensive pumps, but it does the job

It says 3 liter per minute if in the "turbo" setting. But 3 liters of oxygen at 40% is not going to give you any noticable benefit. I would search out a unit that produces at least 90% oxygen, otherwise you are wasting your money.

3 quarts and no more. also check the weight everytime you use it, mine unscrewed itself and popped off, ruing a whole batch of food.

This is an air pump that aerates ponds like an aquarium pump on a large scale! It does not pump liquid! Well... actually, I don't know that; it just might, but it's not designed or intended to. Now that I'm sure you know that, it pumps 1700 cubic inches, or just about a cubic foot, per minute.

i guess that means gallons per minute. anyway it is a powerful pump. i just have a 15 foot pool and it is twice as strong as the original

On 2 liter flow it last 8 hrs. Less for 3 and more for 1. I believe I did pay at least $320
