Need one rated for fuel, otherwise it will eat the seals quick

thats what i thought, but i've been told a regular water pump will do just fine, but i was afraid the methanol would eat it up.

I was pumping heating oil with a water pump, it worked for about 5 mins, and then did nothing. So i went back and had to get one for fuel rated products.
