It's tiny for changing oil in a mower. Could be of use to someone though.

Good to empty an axle or gearbox without all that smelly stuff going everywhere!

i'm sure you could fit a larger tub at the bottom and do full engines.

I wondered if it would be any good for brake bleeding, just hook up to the bleed nipple and suck the fluid through, im sure garages use a similiar
system.

I can recall a few years ago a local petrol staton were advertising oli changes at rediculously low prices. Basically buy the oil from them and for a
few quid they would suck the old stuff out and put fresh in. Of course you didnt get the filter changed (unless you took one along and did that bit
yourself) but it was a good way to get some fresh oil in between the std oil change intervals.A bit more green than Fords old method of fitting leaky
sumps.

If you own a Smart For2 then you have no choice but to suck the oil out as MCC must have decided a sump plug was an unnecessary expense!

Suitable for petrol. Does this mean you can pull up close to someone and siphon fuel from their car straight into your own?
