Hi Joe,
Although I have never pumped honey, I worked in the soft drink industry for
nearly 10 years and pumped lots of HFCS and Sucrose.

Centrifugal pumps will cavatate (spelling) if there is an air leak or a
bubble gets into the lines.  This used to wreak havoc when pumping syrup to
our proportion.  We switched to air diaphragm pumps.  I don't remember the
name off hand but they worked great.  When switching syrup tanks air was
just pushed through the lines rather than nothing going through the lines.
They come in all sizes and even the smallest pump does a great job.  Air
pressure controls the speed of the pumping.
