Liquivac Topside Oil Changer Review
This works very well in removing the oil from my lawn mower, snow blower, pressure washer, and tractor engines. No need to take off a bolt, no spill and it holds all of the oil until I take it to recycling. The tube does collapse under suction with hot oil but it still sucks it all out. It took me a few minutes to do all of my engines this spring. I usually change the oil in the snow blower now so it is ready to go and at the same time get the rest ready for the summer chores. Start them all up in a line, warm them up and go from one to the next. Finally fill up with clean oil and done. Fraction of the cost of taking it to the shop. No spills so no oil stains. Clean hands. Did not work on my truck as could not get the tube down the dip stick tube. I could get a narrow tube but have to unscrew the filter anyway. I also used it to lower the oil level in one engine that I had over filled. If you want to make life easy then put a little gas (a few ounces) in the lawn mower and run till tank is dry. While engine is warm drain oil by suction. Before filling prop up on side and touch up blade. Now fill both oil and gas and you are ready for the season in less time than a drive to the shop. Clear vacuum hose and black suction probe reach down through the dipstick tube to the bottom of the engine pan. Powerful vacuum pump action creates a strong suction that pulls the dirty oil and sludge into the Oil Changer's 2-gallon tank. You can also use it for bailing the boat, removing transmission-oil overfill, cleaning up spills and more!

Great item but... - Richard Scott - N.J
Item works great but company could have given better instruction and or tips on its proper use. Sometimes rubber gasket or "O" ring does not seat properly and you will be pumping the number of times that are indicated but not realizing it is not pressuring correctly. Vacuum is created when pumping and is of course very important for units operation. Once vacuum is set up the unit works excellent and is of high quality construction. I would still recommend this unit for people who like to change trans fluid and for removing fluid from other equipment.
