Customer Reviews for VEVOR Fluid Extractor, 6.5 Liters Capacity, Manual Hand-Operated Oil Changer Vacuum Fluid Extractor with Dipstick and Suction Hose, Oil Extractor Change Pump for Automotive Fluids Vacuum Evacuation

Changing the oil just became so much easier with this oil extractor. You just run the tubing down the dipstick tube and suck all the oil out. Works great! No more mess. Recommended!

Overall works well. Found that the pumping function leaves a considerable amount (less than a quart) in the tank that can't be used without dumping it out, therefore plan for a little extra fluid used.

My lat shop suction tool was a sort of modified grease gun with a hose on the end to suck things out. This too makes that seem completely useless. I love you can either use this manually with the pump. or can use with an air line for the more stubborn fluids to suck up. The first project I used this for was to remove old stale gas from my 4 wheeler, and poured it into my tractor to burn it up. Amazing how easy of a transfer this was. I love how you can just pull the hose and pour out of this tool. It's also really nice it came with several different sizes of hose too. I with I would have gotten my hands on a tool like this years ago!

These guys really know what they're doing on these extraction pumps. They work flawlessly and hold up to all kinds of chemical abuse. I have run oil, brake fluid, dirty water, transmission fluid, coolant, etc. through these without any issues. I like to clean it well after use so it doesn't get gunked up, which probably helps with longevity. I rinse it out with a mild solvent or degreaser and it's good to go for next time. You get a ton of fittings, which is really nice. I haven't used the compressed air fitting on this one yet. I prefer manual mode so I don't have to get my compressor out. Excellent quality that stands tall in comparison with the more expensive brands. Highly recommend.

I am not a fan of changing the oil of yard machinery. Oil drain pans, drips and ultimate messes leave me being somewhat negligent with maintenance. Come to find out there are oil extraction devices available to help with that task, nobody ever told me before but I came across the Vevor system and it's GREAT. Doing a little research I found there are hand pump systems and different styles of pneumatics but many had a larger footprint than what I wanted. The Vevor has a small diameter base, large storage capacity and works via a hand pump or air line. Win, win, win. I needed to get the snowblowers ready for winter so after warming up my Ariens I selected the shorter tube and plugged it into the tank. Took a little effort but resulted in a very tight fit. I connected my air compressor hose to the valve on the tank and then held the suction tube just under the oil dipstick on the machine to catch any drip when I unscrewed the dipstick. As planned, the suction slurped the drip and I then placed the tube down into the engine oil sump. In about 3 minutes total I had more old oil out of the engine than ever before, all without a drop on the floor. I filled the engine with fresh oil and that was it. The tank holds quite a lot so it'll be another 3 or 4 oil changes before I take the tank to my mechanic to properly dispose of the refuse. I don't do oil changes on my vehicles but when I'm due I plan on taking this to the mechanic to have him try it out. I've seen that some shops do oil extraction as a rule now and will be interested to see how much comes out with this method vs draining. The kit comes with enough tubing to get down into truck engines and even if one had to hold the tank I think it could handle some big jobs much easier than convention. Bottom line: well built, quality materials, versatile, no mess, easy to use and I highly recommend it.

Packaging was good. Item appears to be good quality but have not had a chance to use.

I use this pump to remove engine oil through the dipstick. Yes, it doesn't complete remove all the oil like you would through the drain plug but it removes 98% of it so it is good enough IMO to drain with the pump in between filter change to same time and mess.

delivered on schedule. put it work right away pulling 30wt oil out of a briggs 5hp on a 30 degree day. the suction lines are a bit stiff but worked perfectly using the hand pump, have not tried compressed air option yet. 1/2 the price of items that do the same job at the local tool store that sells all the imported stuff or even the big auto parts stores that sell item that looks very similar.

This is my first time using a vacuum pump to change the oil. I have been changing the oil the traditional way by removing the drain plug for many years. So far, this is a really good option. You don't need to raise the car, which is a much safer way even if you are using ramps. I used a compressor to get the vacuum. It works well, but you need a large enough compressor. I think mine is 4 gallons, and the compressor stayed on, but it worked. There are some improvement that they can make. They have marks that you 1 quart, 2 quarts... These marks are very hard to see, they need to be painted, even a sharpie would help. The suction tube attaches just under the handle, if the handle is not turned, you will drain the oil on the handle. The suction tube also twists on, a counter-clockwise twist to lock it on; this is backwards, in other words, traditional tightening, is now loosening. Overall, it's a good tool, it would not take to much to make it better. Also, I an storing it in the cardboard box it came in, maybe something better would be nice.

Its a great tool, and I have not had any problems with it working on automotive braking systems, and also boat trailers and utility trailers with surge brake systems.
