Awesome review- looking to get one of these to pump out the old gear oil in my bush hog gearbox, which doesn’t have a drain plug. Quick tip- I’d use spray silicone to lube that plunger seal, WD-40 is petroleum based like oil and can eat rubber seals over time, where silicone won’t. Thanks for an awesome video, time to go buy a pump at HF! 👍

I've watched several videos on this type of pump and only one I gave a thumbs up. A. Only one I've seen with a clear explanation of the in and out (I realize this is easy to figure out, but still nice he says which is which). B. Only one I've seen that talks about cleaning it (and how) after it has been used. C. Several videos do not show the use of the parts that hold the tube in place at the pump end. One video even showed the tube pop off while being used because he failed to put that on. Hilarious. Nice job.

@actioncamsports 11 месяцев назад

I've used one of these for years on 4-cycle lawn equipment, and it's been great. I recently inherited some 2-cycles. Should I care about cross-contamination from the pump? I understand that I need to keep the fuel separate, but what if I use the same pump on the 4 cycle engines? I'm supposing a small residue of 2-cycle oil would just burn off in a 4-cycle engine. Do you use your cleaning technique every time you change fluids that you are pumping?

@JonnyDIY 11 месяцев назад

It shouldn't be a problem to use the same pump on either. I do clean it every time I siphon brake fluid and gas. I wasn't sure which ruined one of my pumps before, was probably the brake fluid if you've been using it for gas without issue 👍

Can you use this for oil change instead of going underneath the vehicle to find the drain plug??

You can, will just need to attach the small hose to go down there and siphon it.

Will this pump gas up from a 5gal can on the ground into the gas tank of an SUV? Goal for me is to not have to put the can above the gas cap level. Also, after pumping soapy water through it to clear out residual gas, do you need to rinse with clear water and let dry before adding oil or wd-40? Thanks!

@JonnyDIY 3 года назад

It will pump it, but you will have to continually pump it as it won't have the siphoning effect without the gas above. Shouldnt take too long. They also sell a battery operated siphon pump that may be better if you have to regularly do this. I usually let it dry for a few after cleaning with soapy water before the wd-40 👍
