Parts cleaner pump
 

I need a new pump for my Chinese parts washer. The original died early.
I'd like a good replacement pump that doesn't cost as much as a new
washer. I'll be using diluted purple cleaner or Simple Green in it, no
petroleum products.
Any recommendations?

Since those washers only cost about $20 you have a nearly impossible cost
barrier. Perhaps you should reflect on the reason the little parts washers
are so cheap, and consider how much real value you add when you put in a
quality pump. I put in a little pump from a garden store and it works just
fine and has for years now.

Mine died too. They weren’t quite the bargain we thought.

I replaced it with an electric car fuel pump and powered by a heavy-duty
12 V wall transformer. I had the transformer and only had to buy the
fuel pump. I don’t remember what it was, but was well less than twenty
dollars. So far it works. I use kerosene and thought that was the
cause of the original failure.

Are you sure it's dead? Mine has stuck a couple of times when I
haven't used it for months. Once I prod the rotor, it's OK again.

I bought one of those 3 /2 or so gal parts washers from Homier tools,
on their annula tent sale here in town and its still going strong. I
bought it for a coolant resivoir for my 5 x 7 bandsaw, and run water
soluable oil in it, and its going on better than 7 years so far all
trouble free and works like a champ.........so ya just never know.

Of course I had to buy three of them all total in the 2 days Homier
was in town, until I finally got one that worked, and work it has and
continues to do.

I made a small parts washer and used a windshield washer pump and it worked
fine.
