Sealey Tp696 Vacuum Oil And Fluid Extractor Manual 5.5Ltr

I change the oil in my car which has saved me a lot of money over the years and extended the life of my cars. However it was a job I increasingly dreaded - jacking the car up, crawling under the car on a damp driveway, removing the needless abs plate and then opening the sump screw, dealing with the old oil and then having to reverse the whole process. This vacuum pump is a revelation - far quicker and a fraction of the work! This pump assembles in seconds, easily slips down the oil dipstick tube and after a few pumps begins to suck the oil out. I was concerned that it would not suck all the oil out but the full 4.6 litre capacity of my car was removed in a few minutes. I wish l had this years ago. The pump feels well made and assembles with reassuring tightness. I expect it to last years. From pump assembly to sucking the oil out and changing the filter the whole lot was finished in less than 30 minutes! This is much safer, quicker and cleaner than getting under your car. I am now far more inclined to do oil changes when they are needed rather than putting it off until l absolutely have to change it. I also use the pump on my lawnmower to suck out the old oil as well as sucking out stale petrol after the winter - it’s very handy to have. 5 star - strongly recommended.

This has to be the best piece of kit I have ever bought for car maintenance. I've lost count of how many oil changes I've done with this - two changes a year on two cars (and I've had this for 4 changes of car over the years I've had this). An oil, oil filter and air filter change in less than an hour, no ramps, no crawling under the car, no risks, no mess. I've measured the amount of oil extracted against the amount the manuals say the engine holds and its all there. The two tubes supplied have fitted all sizes of dip stick tubes I've encountered and they can also be used to extract the oil from the bottom of the chamber where the oil filter sits, the old oil filter etc. The pump works as well as it did on day one and I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do regular oil changes without either paying garage prices or, alternatively, having all the hassle and risk of running a car up ramps, crawling underneath and doing your best to avoid a) scalding yourself on the engine or oil, b) damaging or threading the drain plug, c) missing the oil bucket and d) dropping a car on your head. It's so easy to use that my son, who was 10 when I got this, has been setting the pump up and pressurizing it since day one while I explain the finer points of the internal combustion engine. He hates it.

After reading the very good comments I decided to buy the Sealey TP69. I bought this item to change the engine oil in my cars. The first was my Audi A4 1.9 TDI (2007). Wasn't sure what to expect, as I have been disappointed with other purchases in the past (Proxxon Electrical pump). Yet, after using the Sealy for my oil change I must say, this is brilliant! Bring the oil up to temperature. Put in the hose in throught the dipstick hole (8mm works very well in the TDI). Unscrew fillercap to alow airflow to the sump to compensate for the vacuum you are about to create. Pump the handle a couple times up and down (just like you would a bicycle pump) and oil starts to flow immediately. When finished, pull out the hose from the dipstick hole. Keep paper towels nearby for dripping oil. Hold the hose in the air so the last oil will be sucked out of the hose into the container. After filling up the oillevel. You can use the old oil container to dispose of the old oil by just pouring it in (without dripping or spilling). Never was an oil change more easy than this. It did an excellent job. Piece of cake. Really as easy as other comments already suggested! The whole assembly is robust, well made and looks durable. I'm entirely satisfied. Maximum points (stars) from me. Brilliant!

Good sturdy design and nearly perfect capacity. Drained 6.5l or warm oil from the car in about 10 minuets with a stop halve way through to pour some out - I was worried it would get compleatly full and start seeping out the top. It has a push button on the top to release the vacuum and stop pumping. It did seem to get all of the oil out (~6.5l), but since I didn't remove sump plug and check I can't say for sure. Ill let the garage do every other change the old fasioned way as I do worry a little about sludge being left behind. It comes with 3 plastic tubes, one connects to the extractor and either of the other two to this by pushing it into the very hard rubber bung. It is a tight fit and I wouldn't worry about it accidentally coming undone. I did google a few horror stories about cheaper extractor tubes ending up disconnecting and lodging in sumps, couldn't happen with this as the tubes are quite thick and each have a metal spine to stop them coiling too much. This is not for oil storage and needs to be cleaned after each use. I think you would need to take it apart to compleately clean it, but a squirt of washing up liquid and a hose in the spout got it clean enough.

Was always a bit mistrustful of sucking oil out through dipstick hole so used to do oil changes the messy way on our cars. Decided as I got a bit older I didn't like crawling under cars and getting oil all over myself and the driveway and decided to buy one of these a couple of years ago. When I first used it I measured the oil that came out of car carefully and seemed it had got it all ( it helps that our driveway slope down so front of engine lower than rear ) - now change oil once a year and filter every second year on several cars and can do it and stay pretty clean. Also used it to extract old front fork fluid on motorbikes and again, it gets most of it out - much easier than taking half the front of bike apart. Also used when plumbing to empty radiators and pipes as well as sucking water out of any tray i put under pipework ( when it gets too full and looks like overflowing ) - can be used anywhere you need to remove pretty much any fluid from anything, so paid for itself many times over so far. This unit is very sturdy and well made, you just have to remember to warm oil before sucking out and also to hold the pump body with one hand while pumping with the other ( otherwise the pump can pull out, it is only pushed into rubber seal ).

This is great - clean and easy to use. Was a bit sceptical about these so had resisted for years - fool! I wish I'd had this for the last 20 years. So normally, when you pop the drain plug, you get hot oil up your arm, if flows out hitting bits of the car and splashes all over the place, and then you have to deal with a open pan of hot oil, often having to put the plug back in part way through as the pan isn't big enough. This is brilliant, warm the engine oil, push the tube down the dipstick tube and pump a few times - stand back and watch. Now, OK - I still popped the drain plug to investigate for any muck but that was clean and quick. Not tried it on brake bleeding yet but - will never do an oil change without this again!

I fount out about this on the day I desperately needed one. I did an oil change on my car, put Engine Flush into the system, waited half hour, got underneath and was ready to drain the usual way (Sump Plug) .. only to round the bolt off >:(, knowing you're not meant to really run the engine with Engine Flush inside because of damages it can cause, I was stuck, so I googled and come across one of these. Yes, there are cheap ones available, but I wanted to buy once, and that's it, so decided to go for this at £45. It worked wonders!, cold engine flush fair enough took it's time due to the thickness of oil at cold, but it still drained it out, took about an hour I refilled the engine with Tescos own grade oil, took the car for a drive and made the oil go to normal temperature, I re-used this oil pump and it drained warm oil completely in about 5 mins, I then re-added branded oil and works wonders, this to me was a car saver, and was a fantastic emergency bit of kit, yes, I'll carry on using this until I sort the sump plug out (I.E When I get a different car), I'll still go back to the sump plug way because it's unlikely to drain every last bit, but i'd say it easily does 98% of the oil in the engine

I've had this for just under 2 years and used it, maybe half-a-dozen times at most, since I bought it, without issue... until today. I used it this afternoon, to do an oil change on our family car, and the result is, as shown in the photo attached. Not sure if I did something wrong/different from when I've used it in the past, but the vacuum reservoir/container seems to have suctioned in on itself and completely deformed. I didn't see it happen - one minute it was fine, and then next it looked like this! I was able to complete the oil change without further issue, but there's no way I can get the vacuum reservoir it to go back to it's original shape (I tried pressurising it with a bicycle pump to about 50psi without any luck) so unfortunately it will be destined for the recycling center now, as it doesn't stay upright easily any more and risks spilling oil everywhere. I doubt I will buy another Sealey vacuum pump to replace it with, I will likely go for a Pella next time instead - which is probably what I should have bought in the first place.

Managed to extract about 5l from N47 engine (BMW F10 520d). Works as advertised! In my case I had to give it the occasional extra pump though, and getting out the last bits (at the bottom of the sump when vacuum is lost) required constant pumping. Why 4 stars? - It's too expensive for what it is (plastic!) - There's no volume indication on the body - Manufacturer is unable to say what is the maximum temperature for the tube (lest it melts). They only say it shouldn't be used at operating temperature (100C). 60C was fine for my 0W30 oil though - There's no way to actually open the body to clean it up from the inside after use One note - not all cars will let you insert a tube all the way to the bottom of the sump through the dipstick. Before buying get a somewhat rigid small diameter tube from a shop and see whether it gets all the way in.

Tres bon produit,facile a mettre en oeuvre, 5 a 6 coup de pompe et hop c'est parti pour 5.5L en 8 Mn! bref ouverture de garage,tour du quartier, ouverture capot retirer jauge bouchon huile,enfiler le tuyau puis le raccorder chercher clef a filtre,entonnoir,filtre a huile + bidon d'huile dans le garage! mettre un peu d'huile neuve pour bien tout vider ,demonter le filtre ,pose du filtre,remplir d'huile,controle niveau ! vider la pompe la ranger,aller balancer l'huile a la decheterie ,retour,fermeture garage! le tout 1 H ! filtre + huile 25 € la pompe amortie en 2 vidanges vu que la vidange simple en centre auta est passer a 65 €

Materialqualität,Verarbeitung und Funktionalität hervorragend. Mit dieser Handpumpe habe ich meinen allerersten PKW Öl- und Filterwechsel in nullkommanix sauber und gründlich durchgeführt. Öltemperatur natürlich je wärmer desto besser, bin aber davon überzeugt, dass die Pumpe auch nicht erwärmtes Öl mit ihrer Saugkraft zuverlässig abgepumpt hätte.

Il prezzo è piuttosto alto (e per questo non dò le 5 stelle), ma è molto pratico ed efficace. E' un serbatoio con pompa aspirante a mano e un solo tubo di aspirazione, con terminale di diametro adatto ad entrare nella cannula dell'astina per il controllo livello. La pompa aspira aria dal serbatoio e l'olio ne viene risucchiato dentro in pochissimi minuti. Non ci sono tubi di rinvio come nelle pompe classiche e non c'è nessun pericolo di perdite o fuoriuscite d'olio. Alla fine del lavoro si tolgono pompa e tubo aspirante (hanno semplici innesti a pressione) e si travasa l'olio in una tanica o un altro recipiente adatto. C'è in dotazione un beccuccio per facilitare il travaso. Tutto l'apparecchio è in plastica, ma è sufficentemente robusto. Lavorando con un minimo di attenzione si riesce ad estrarre completamente l'olio dal motore senza versarne nenche una goccia e senza sporcarsi le mani, ed era proprio quello che cercavo, dopo aver sperimentato varie pompe sia a mano che elettriche. Solo con questo apparecchio sono riuscito con facilità a fare un lavoro pulito senza seminare olio per il garage, sulla carrozzeria o addosso ai vestiti. E adesso non vedo l'ora che arrivi il momento del prossimo cambio dell'olio!

Me ha gustado y ha funcionado bien con el aceite caliente claro, para lo cual hay que poner el motor en marcha un rato o bien circular durante un rato -pueden ser de 10 a 15 minutos más o menos-. Pero sí, al final saco todo el aceite del motor. Eso si después es un pringue limpiarlo, es lo que tiene el aceite de motor usado.
