Default oil pump

well today i changed the motor oil, tranny oil, and diff. oil. Omg i had a hard time pumping the new fluid in the diff and tranny by crushing the bottle.

i don't think i can do that again, it was so exhausting, especially the diff. the le607 is so thick and when i pushed and let go the damn oil would just go back into the bottle.

is there anything affordable as in a hand pump or anything that can assist me in getting the fluid in ALOT easier?

You can pick up a Suction gun at most auto parts stores. It looks like a big syringe with a hose on the end.

1) Find a small local shop
2) Express your auto fixation with owner of said shop
3) Let owner drive car for a "run"
4) Express to owner of said shop you need:
--Place to change oil
--Place to clean undercarriage
--Place to do smog /safety check
--Place to pull codes
-- Place to change fluids
-- Place to install mods
- Willingness to sighn insurance waiver

If you don't do this; next you'll want to know where to get your codes pulled for free! And the incorrect answer will be Autozone (as most can't pull the 1 stack for the manufacturer--OBD-II Explorer Basic). That being said take a six pack of beer out and find a really good shop. If they are car people they will respect your ride, your offering up your ride to the owner, and and help you as a car person out. As a courtesy you should get your other non-interesting cars serveiced there too!

Just my opinion....it has worked for me.

P.S. Tomorrow
-- Free smog and safety check
