I have been using a Kavan for many years with no problems. Just run it on a 7.2 car pack. From the photos the Kavan looks just like the Sig pump. V..

The main problem with the Kavan / SIG pumps is that you have to be very careful about the orientation when mounting them ... the pumps have a tendency to leak after prolonged use, and when gasoline or jet A leaks into an electric motor, it's not pretty. So, you need to ensure that you mount it with the motor above the pump.

Greylor is the source for the jetcat pump and the tamjet pump I believe. Last I bought one it was less than 50 bucks shipped or thereabouts.

I've bought 4 of them and they are great. One of mine is three seasons old and has pumped somewhere between 100 and a 150 gallons of fuel.
