0.5 Litre Fluid Transfer Pump Dual Inlet Outlet

If you've ever bought a so-called oil and fluid transfer pump, the chances are you will have been disappointed when you found out it couldn't cope with thicker oils like EP90, or that it's plastic barrel and components quickly wore out or failed.

This extremely well designed and constructed transfer pump is manufactured in steel with seperate inlet and outlet valves, a far cry from those cheap and nasty, inferior plastic pumps.

This pump incorporates a double-shaped seal for improved pumping effectiveness, will transfer a 1/2 litre per stroke, and is suitable for transferring a wide range of fluids and lubricants, including viscous oils such as EP90.

Supplied with two hoses, one inlet and one outlet, each over 1 full metre in length.[/b][/quote]

I've a stirrup pump which I never use, a smaller suction pump thingy that holds about 600ml with a plunger tube (like a syringe) on one end and a 1/2" x 600mm (like the mix up of measuring systems https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ ) clear hose on the other, it leaks and makes a mess, or last Monday I changed the diff oil in the Patrol by using those little 1 litre bottles that Castrols lubes come in with the pull up spout. Saves me mucking around with my pumps and making a bloody mess https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Hi Mat
You need a "Tom Thumb" pretty sure STC make them.Its a bottle,around 1 litre in capacity,with the same pump setup as a 20L drum pump,around $20.Can buy them over here in WA from a filter supply mob,if you cant find one yell out I will find their contact no.
Goodluck
Andrew

I bought a Tom Thumb on Andy's recommendation and it works well. Changed the Defenders gearbox oil again in an attempt to get smooth changes and didn't spill a drop.
Didn't get smooth changes either!
