There are several fuel pump designs that will work with water! (not
the rotary ones, but there are designs that use a plunger with a
solenoid driver).


What happens if you try to use water with the rotary ones?


If it is all stainless, it might be OK. Some are, but they are
expensive. A non-stainless (cheap ones) would rust quickly.

The plunger/solenoid ones are mostly plastic.
