Oil extraction pump

[syldogRT/10]

Any one have any experience with an oil extraction pump? AutoSport sells one that you put down the dipstick hole into the crank case and pump out the old oil into a reservoir. Supposedly this is the way Mercedes Benze techs are trained to change oil. Thanks for any input.

I use one on my boat. It works well.

I really don't like that you miss some of the worst stuff in the bottom of the pan. I had mine get stuck in the dip stick tube on a stealth and I had to pull it out with some force and part of it broke off in the tube.

I do use it to pull the oil out of my old school catch pan to avoid making a mess dumping it. It is the bomb for the lawn equipment.
