Review: Harbor Freight Oil Change Pump
The pump and canister seem to work.
As predicted by Schwing, the 7/16" tube collapsed. The wall is too thin. I suspect that's why someone returned the unit I received. It was oily when I got it.
The smaller tube that slides into the dip stick tube seems to hold up.
I have scrounged some stiffer tubing and I think this will solve my problem and make this contraption a nice addition to the garage for "extra" oil changes between the full L.O.F.
I'm using this on my Elise because its belly pan makes the TT's look easy, it sees more track use, and taking it to a shop requires much more time and money.<ul><li><a href="http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=45403">http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=45403</a</li></ul>
