Thread: Ebay: AUTOMOTIVE OIL SUCTION GUN

I've been looking at something along those lines, however that one just looks like a modded grease gun. Is it the same as the one you have?

How does it work? Ie, is it easy to use, or easy so slip and spew oil everywhere?

<span style="color:blue">it is a syringe.....

a big one.....


and works the same....can be a bit messy if you are not careful.....
but you get that with any oil you touch.... </span>8O

Bought one at Supercheap for about $25. Lots easier than funnels and tipping the 130 on its side to get at the hole.

Ahh i have a 20 litre pump and i just ramp it up and fill...

Mine is a different brand, but the same idea. just draw the plunger back and the fluid moves into the body of the tool, thne just push the plunger to transfer the fluid REAL easy.

Works a treat - even lifts EP90 without spilling any.

I had one of these about 20 years ago ( I think I still have it).
Found it quite cumbersome.
While under a vehicle, it's awkward to fill, and then moving it to the filler hole, it tends to spill a bit. The tube didn't fit the outlet too well, and leaked.

Bought a hand pump that screws onto the 5L containers.
This works much better.

Mmmm, hand pump sounds like an interesting proposition, where did you get it from?

I have two of them.

The first leaks oil all over you and you know how EP90 smell hangs on for moths on your clothes. Would you believe it has a welded tube and the weld is still rough along the length of the inside the tube so there is no way the washer will seal. Cheap Taiwanese crap.

The other is a n Aussie McNaught brand unit (the mob that makes grease guns). It is much better.

They are messy devices and a pump would be much better.
