The product, in the report: Battery operated, liquid transfer pump
I put my Harbor Freight transfer fuel pump (63847) in a 5-gallon can of gas to transfer fuel to my car (like I’ve done many times before) and when I switched it on, gasoline started gushing out through the battery compartment and the on/off switch so I instinctively switched it off. Moments later I realized that could have caused a spark! It should be impossible for the fuel to enter the battery compartment and the on/off switch but it did. This product should be recalled immediately before it injures or kill someone.
