FIRSTINFO A1102USY5 Patented Third Generation 6.5L Pneumatic/Manual Oil Vacuum Extractor | Vacuum Safety Valve | 51 Inch Tube | 5 Tubes | Thinnest Tube | Taiwan

Used first time instead of the usual drain plug for changing auto oil. Was a nice, easy and painless way to get the oil out of the vehicle. Warm up the engine oil, and a few pumps and this works well to get out the dirty oil. Good quality pump, and happy to add it to my tool inventory. Nice assortment of extra hoses. Would recommend.

I am super happy with this unit! I bought the 6.5L version.The unit is well constructed, comes with a great collection of long hoses, is extremely easy to use, and will have completely paid after I use it a second time.How to use:Place the tank on the ground in front of the carOpen the hood and remove the dipstickPlace the main drain line into the top, this line will point upwards like a fishing poleSelect from the provided hoses a suction line that fits down your dipstick tubeSlide the hose into the dipstick tube until it hits bottom (you will feel it)Bend and connect the flexible drain and suction linesPump the handle on top of the tank 4-8 timesStep back and watch the oil flow through the suction line into the tank60-90 seconds and possibly 1 or 2 pumps later the oil has been removed from the engineRemove the suction lines & wipe with a rag as you removePlace the suction lines in the holder on the side of the tank. Place a rag until the holder to catch any drips (It is self-draining, great design idea!)Replace dipstickRefill the engineDispose of the oils legally at any gas station or parts store collection pointAll of this takes 10 minutes or less to do. You can also use this to drain transmissions, power steering, or brake fluid. Tubes fitting all of these systems are included.I hope this helps!

It works. The built in hand pump is more than adequate. But when using the air line it is quicker. The only thing is dealing with compressor noise. Usually i’m looking around the car when waiting for the oil to be sucked out. So the ability to use a air line is not essential for me. For me, my Mercedes holds 8 qts and that is what I can pour back in. This pump does a thorough job.I will update later to how long this one will last. I had a different brand on my previous pump and it quick working within two years.July 5, 2022: This pump is still running good. It has lasted longer than my first pump I bought. I wished they had put measurement volume numbers on the markings on the this pump.June 2, 2023: It’s still going strong. I even use it with my ‘97 4Runner with the V-6. When the oil first stops extracting I have to move the tube up and down a bit to get all of the oil out. One think that keeping the tube all the way down would do it. With the 4Runner I have pull up the tube slightly to get it all out. Toyota didn’t design the engine like how with my Mercedes I have to keep the tube all the way down. I’ve kept suction on it and pulled the tube up a bit like I do with 4Runner. But with the Mercedes the tube needs to be kept down. I will pour 5.5 qts in the 4Runner which is the fill capacity. So I know I’m getting all the oil out of the 4Runner.

I bought this to change transmission fluid in my 2017 F150 10R80 and 2016 Honda Ody 6sp. I changed the transmission fluid in the Ody with 10 drops spilled mostly from refilling. I did not have to break loose the drain plug or fill plug (sticks badly due to friction modifiers). Took me about 2 minutes to evacuate the 3.1qts from the Ody via the dipstick tube. The large hose did not fit, but the middle sized hose fit fine. It did not drain 3.6qts as is would from the drain plug. I shoved the tube in as far as I could get it and let it run till nothing came out. I cannot recommend using this exclusively for Ody Trans Fluid changes. The magnet on the drain plug should be cleaned. If doing the 2nd and 3rd drain and fill should be Ok though.As far as using the unit: The nylon tube is rated via the instructions at 95C which is over 200F. That should be fine for most automotive fluids, but be weary. The extraction tubes have adapters that appear to have a very small amount of glue on them, but one I had to jam back on and another had to be glued with Honda Bond (Honda's oil pan sealant). It could use a better fitting end on the larger tank side tube. The air powered vacuum pump works quite well. My 20 gal compressor kept up and recovered quickly. It has more to do with airflow than pressure or tank size though. The manual pump handle is right in the way of the tube connection/ empty port. The vacuum release button barely works at all. The manual pump seems adequate, but I only played with it a little. It has half liter marking which are hard to see (quickly remedied with a marker). Quart marking would have been more useful. That will take more effort to mark. Given this is a overnight-branded Taiwan made unit I would not count on replacement parts being available for long term.Overall, I would recommend for light duty use. Don't count on getting replacement seals in 5-10 years when the ones in it rot out. Don't mix brake fluid with oil. It is different and must be recycled differently. Therefore I don't recommend the brake bleeding kit unless it is dedicated to that purpose (DOT 3,4,5.1 fluids only or DOT 5 only). It is easy to use, but it is typical low cost tools which tend to be hit or miss. Check it out carefully before you contaminate it with oil and Amazon will not take it back. Mine works OK so I will keep it.Update Apr 2021: The seller changed the pictures for the listing. What you see above is not what I got and reviewed. The pump mechanism is similar, but the body is very different. The nylon tubes can kink easily and prevent flow. The adapters fall off and friction fit back on, but still fall off rather easily. In addition to the above I've used it for oil changes on generators as well. It is still a much less messy method. Beware to catch the dripping tubing. Replacement tubes seem to be available, but we'll see.

This thing sucks! In a good way 😂 This evacuator is excellent. Doesn't leak, easily removes oil from my suv. It's a good sizeable holds a decent amount of oil! Overall great value for the $$$
