northern tool has a pump for like 200 bucks. It says that it is "uncloggable" so i am thinking about trying it. It may not be as fast as some of them, but if it works then thats fine with me.

Joel;

The reason they cost a lot is due to the fact that they have to pump out 3-5 GPM against 16" of vacuum.

Most pumps will NOT handle that vac level....

Or that much trash....

The ProChem diaphragm pump has just recently jumped in price several hundred dollars.

We tried some less expensive pump-outs, but they have to be serviced fairly often.
