Hi I think the lift pump you speak of will work but the volume you can pump is very small per stroke. You could be there for 40 min per gal on the other hand you will be getting a good work out. I have been experimenting with shop vac's this is a fast way to suck almost anything. 55 gal drum 2" bung attach vac there. 3/4" fitting w/1" hose Walla transfer 55 gat in a few min depending on the viscosity. Good luck Derick
