Pumping Kerosene.
So, due to landlord related issues, I need a shift a few (maybe 150) litres of kerosene.
I know the pikeys use these
but I suspect there's a slight risk of loss of fingers.
This looks a bit more promising, but again with
the no flammables.
Any ideas chaps?

Kerosene like diesel vapour is normally below the danger point electric pump should be no problem.
Im my experirncr electric drill pumps are normally pretty cr**

150L is around £50 worth, not a lot of point spending £30 to get it out. Depending on the age of the tank there will be sediment and water in there
any way.
If the tank is of the floor just take the pipe of and fill some 25L tubs

The tank is pretty new, and frankly, I'd rather take it and dispose of it at the tip than leaving this delightful gentleman anything of any
value.

Something like this would do the job.

we use a fuel injection pump same as fitted to my bec to pump petrol in and out of the race car, give a decent flow rate just push rubber hoses on
each end seems to be fairly good at self priming too.
not 100% sure how it would work with kerosene other option is a tank or lift pump from a diesel in the scrappers

Thinking about it, I do happen to have a scrap diesel felica on the drive, that might work.
