Give it about 8V and 1.5A to get the pump going.

I have originally set the DC power supply to 8.5V and 1A, but when connected it just ate it all up and no pump action, so I had to connect and then raise the voltage and current, and at about 6V and it kicked in. I think motorbike 6V battery may be a quick and cheap solution. Should have also hooked up filter outlet to some kind of a tube to drain into a container. This will avoid a stream of diesel coming out splashing everywhere.
