Default Diff. Fluid Pump

Hi,

I replaced my diff. fluid last time and I purchased a pump from AutoZone. I was a big mess! I am about to do it again. Wonders what pump do you use and where to get them. Your advice is very much appreciated.

Tim

Forget the pump... get a long piece of 1/2"ID plastic tubing and tie one end to the open gas door and stick the other end in the diff fill hole. Put a funnel in the top and pour the lube (heat the bottle a little with hot tap water) in. No mess, no pumping.

Do you have an air compressor? You can easily make a tool to use the air compressor to pump the oil into the diff, tranny, or any similar problematic location.
