EWK 6L Vacuum Oil Extractor Pump Fluid Extractor Oil Change Pump for Automotive and Marine Boat

Warm up car, so engine oil comes to temp or almost. Turn off engine. Push small diameter tube down oil dip stick tube, operate pump to create a vacuum inside round thing. You don't pump air into unit, but its opposite, a vacuum instead. WIll take time, perhaps 20 mins or so. Then just pour oil out of unit into a container to recycle somewhere. Your not using pump thing all the time, like 10 pump pulls, just pull up till resistance felt, let go and let oil flow. I have a kia sorento, filter under hood. So didnt have to put suv on ramps, drain pan. Was an easy oil change, wish did this years ago.

The EWK 6L Vacuum Oil Extractor Pump is a game-changer for DIY oil changes, making the process clean, fast, and efficient. Its intuitive manual pump and sturdy 6-liter tank easily extract oil from my from lawnmower, snowblower, and pressure washer, saving me time and money. The transparent tube and flexible probe ensure precise, mess-free operation, while the robust build promises years of use. It’s a fantastic value that paid for itself in one use. Despite requiring some manual effort, the pump’s versatility and quality make it a must-have for any DIY mechanic. Highly recommended!

If there is one thing I hate, is draining lawn mower oil. What a mess. Once I figured out that you don't have to keep pumping, tiring yourself out, I fell in love with this thing. Create the vacuum, let physics take over. And no mess to boot.

This product sucks !Which is a high compliment it works very well - better than I hoped.Graduations make it easy to tell volume extracted.Use when oil is warm for faster extraction.Fantastic idea if you have a "top oil filter" engine like my Mercedes do.Meaning you'll never / seldom need to go under car as now no need to pull drain plug & remove bottom cover

This is the first vacuum extractor I've tried, choosing this unit based on the high positive reviews. It does the job nicely, but there are a few things that you need to know if you're going to use it for a variety of jobs.1) it is not very good at removing thick fluids like a heavy hydraulic oil. You can pump all you want and it just flows very slowly. My first job for this is to remove hydraulic fluid from a bulk tank, and I don't know the specific viscosity, although it kinda reminds me of a 50 weight or heavier. I had to mix in some kerosene to get it to flow out with any kind of speed. They do not state what the useful viscosity range is, but I would say anything higher than 40 weight or 50 weight (especially if it's cold) are a no-go limit on this. On something like 5W or 0W synthetics in car engines, I would expect this to work great, especially if you do the oil extraction when the oil is warm / hot (as you should).2) It sure would be nice to have a valve at the end of the clear plastic tube so that you could create the vacuum in the vessel first, and then go extract your oil with your hands free to position the tip of the wand where you want it. When you pump it, you need one foot at least on the base of the canister and one hand on the pump. This is of no consequence for engine oil changes where the tube is stationary, but I can envision so many other uses for this "fluid vacuum cleaner" that it would be great to pump it down and then be able to use the wand intermittently to clean out tank corners, etc. As it is built, if you pull the probe out of the fluid, most of the vacuum is lost unless you're real fast. A valve would make this awesome.3) I did not get a gasket for the spout, so every time you go to empty the pot, it dribbles fluid all down the side of it, so you end up using a bunch of paper towels every time it gets emptied. And the spout and its threads are coated with whatever your fluid is, so it dribbles all over my bench. I don't think it woulda killed the manufacturer to give me a gasket like the one that is in the pump. I'll have to get one from a supply house like McMaster. So I take away one star for having to correct something the OEM should have thought of.I'll be keeping this for a long time, super useful on the right fluids, and priced right. With a few mods, it'll be even more useful.

This pump works excellent. Very happy with this purchase. Great value for the money. Would buy again. I used it to change the oil in my boat and it was a no brainer. No leaks, work excellent.

Please only use on yard or sport ATV/UTV equipment.Easy to use to evacuate undesirable oil. Easy to dump into an approved container.

I used it to extract the oil from our 2006 VW beetle 2.5L through the dipstick tube, as a first experiment. It worked wonderfully and pulled 5.5 liters out. That's just about every drop that goes in there. I love the thin tube that you use to suck the oil out. It's not some flimsy plastic tube. It's like the outer shell like you have on bicycle handbrake cables. Plasticized metal, stiff but flexible, and won't get deformed if it has to go past some bends. When I dropped it in through the dipstick tube initially, I just shoved it in there without thinking.. Wrong!, worked only so so. The tube goes down, bends horizontally in the pan , and back up out of the oil. Oil came out but not fast. So I pulled out the whole tube and held it next to the dipstick, to get the exact length, and dropped it in to that length. A few pumps later, the oil came through at great speed. When I gently pushed the tube in further, I could actually hear it hit the oil pan below. Pulled it up 1/8", and it was as deep as it goes. As it starts sucking air towards the end, you'll hear/see it. Wiggle it around to see if there's a pool left somewhere. If not, you've got it all. Very happy with this. Feels sturdy. and you can do it in your Sunday clothing....-:)
