Cold ethanol pumps

Worked great until we burst a bag. Intake screen clogged imediately. Not the pumps fault, but needs noting.

Both pushed and pulled, including priming, through a filter. Almost emptied it too (pumping air). Cold didn’t phase it. Not as fast as N2 (and N2 does that other stuff).

Caveats: Came lubicated. Intended for fuel not food. Leave intake screen accessible or supplement it with something both bigger & smaller.

Materials and construction appear appropriate. I removed lubricant and cleaned everything thoroughly.

Want the ability to feed it 3-20V and reverse it. Should be fairly simple.

Might make more sense to play similar games with the AC version.
