What are you using to extract your transmission oil?

If you want to go cheap then use a shampoo pump (Rinsed out well from the big bottles). I have done this when I needed to change oil and didn't have time to go to the store. Takes about 10 min of pumping, but you get 2 quarts out. any water in the pump goes into the waste bucket anyhow.

i bought a suck up pump from skidim that they don't stock any more. i can't get more than 1 quart out, and it takes more than an hour to do it. i have to pump it up atleast 25 times until its sucked up what it can. the tube is definately bottoming out, so i'm not sure why i'm getting so little oil out. I'm jealous of the people that do this so quick. it feels like the whole ordeal is a half a day for me.

I've used a turkey baster on my direct drives for over 20 years.

This is what I use to remove my transmission oil.

It is an old medical vacuum pump.

I used a combination of items on this and other threads this weekend. First, the copper tubing worked great and allowed easy and safe access deep into the bottom of the case. As in the thread picture, I had a 24" piece of copper, attached is some clear tubing (1/4" ID) about 3' long and the I attached this to a cheap transfer pump from Advanced Auto. The pump had some fittings that allowed the for the clear tubing to be stepped up to the size of the pump in/out connectors. It took maybe 10 mins of slow pumping ( to keep from spilling on my part) to pump out 2.25 qts of fluid. I used a measured paint pail from Home Depot to keep track how much I was able to transfer out.

I was quite happy with the setup and for $ 20 it can be used year after year.

i have a PELA 6000. im still confused as to whether ya'll are sliding the new hose w/ copper attached onto the existing black hose that comes with it or if you are removing things from the pump and adding the hose/copper.
