Default Pela 6000 still the most popular oil extractor?

Living in a large city without ready access to a garage has made me finally pull the trigger on one. Should make things a bit easier.

Pretty cheap at $35.00

Default I use mine about 1x/month. Get an extra dipstick thing or 2, if the rubber gets a tear, you can cut

you can cut it down once, but eventually you need a spare. Being in the midst of a job and the pump tube glitching is a bummer. Great tool for cars that have a trans dipstick too. Well worth the money.
