Electric oil extractor recommendations?

[Rongreenwood]

Looking for a high quality electric oil extractor for small engines wondering if anyone could recommend one that will last thanks in advance

check with one of the local or internet marine stores, there are quite a few out there, just for this purpose.

I wouldn't bother with electric. The vacuum type work really well. As kd3pc says check out the boating stores.

Jabsco...get the one with the 3 1/2 gallon bucket. I have used the manual ones and they are a total pain....

Finally upgraded to the model 17800 that works off the 12 v battery...***** everything out...then you get the gallon jugs or whatever you want to put waste oil in...and flip a switch to reverse the pump...and it pumps it cleanly into the container...

Or buy the cheapo manual and get a sore arm and a mess....

Get the replacement impeller for it...in five years I only switched it out once..but handy to have on hand.

I do 5 boats and tractors every year and it works great...

Use a vacuum pump to pull vacuum on canister. Run a nylon line from the cansiter the dipstick. Drop the line down the dip stick tube goes to the bottom of the pan. Turn the pump on ***** the oil out....every last drop. Homemade version ***** 13 quarts out the Sprinter with no mess no fuss.

I think I might try the vac pump first I have a old marvac pump and no use for it

my vacuum oil changer will easily pull over 5 quarts with one handle pull, and is 8-10 years old and still no leaks or issues. It is the tall cylinder model and is easy to use on the boat or at the home shop. No mess...

I want to get another vac unit, I have one for coolant and going to get one just for oil.

We'll I set it up today only to find out my eu2000 honda generator won't power it. I need it to run off gen so it can be Mobile. Think I could cut the start up wattage by putting a variable speed switch on vac? Is that even possible? Maybe just go back to tarmstrongs recommendation

What kind of pump is this that a 2000 wont start it? As one said above. mine pulls the whole tank in a couple pumps.

 

[Rongreenwood]

It's a old marvac retailed by snap on has a 1/3hp start up wattage is prob somewhere around 2300-2500 watts it's the start up wattage that I think is shutting it down
