So basically, the Q is:
How practical is using the vehicle's fuel pump as a transfer pump?
Even for, say, giving a stranded motorist a cupla gallons, without
having to lug a gas can around?


The electric fuel pump in my Ford delivers 1 liter per minute.



That won't work, he's transferring gallons, not liters. He'd have to
buy metric gas.
