LubriMatic 55-001 4CC Mechanical Fluid Pump for Quart Size Bottles

Guys. I cannot stress enough how easy and seamless this pump was to use. It had zero issues and it fit right on top of my transmission fluid jugs.After I was done using it, I literally felt like I had bought the best item on Amazon. I felt proud of purchasing this lolQuality+Effortlessness+Value+

not expensive and it works.

Pump worked well, but the screw on cap didn’t fit the quart size transmission fluid. This resulted in a spill when I set it down and the quart bottle fell over. Fortunately, I had the bottle (and pump) in a plastic bag lined box for this very reason. Bought a different one that fits, and siphons more volume per pump.

Good pump worked well when serving a transmission transferred fluid well

Got this for an upcoming maintenance on a car. Made the job easier and more efficient on getting it done.

Recently worked great on a Miata manual trans and differential fluid change. I will provide a few tips that would probably solve some of the complaints I read about. Just about any manual fluid pump, including suction pumps, will have trouble with 80-90 weight oil if the fluid is cold. Even room temperature can be difficult to pump. I transfer 90 weight regularly on farm equipment, like bushhog gearboxes, and it is really hard on a cold day unless you heat the fluid you are pumping. When I remove fluid out of a gearbox with my manual suction pump, I make sure I have run the equipment to warm the oil and even put a heater on the gearbox for a while before suctioning. To heat the fluid in new plastic or metal containers, place the containers either in the sun in warm weather for a while or best of all in front of a small convection or IR type heater -- for maybe 10 to 15 minutes or until warm. Of course use common sense and place the container about a foot or two in front of the heater or whatever you consider safe so it doesn't catch fire. After the fluid gets warm, these little fluid pumps work great. The Plews is one of the better ones I've used as it pumped a fair amount of fluid with each push, but it still takes enough pumps to make some of my older muscles burn a little. If the fluid is too cold, the pump spring will take a while to return to the extended position, slowing the process down. One thing I like about the little pumps with short hoses is that you aren't losing a bunch of fluid in the tube as you would with a long hose stretched up and out the side of the vehicle. The dog-gone trans fluid was over $20 per quart, so I'm not not going to let much of that stuff hit the floor or get left in tubing if I can help it. The Redline bottles, from those I've used, are not standard quart size and thread (they are slightly smaller diameter), so the Plews will sit over the top without sealing. Therefore, take your time to make sure it doesn't spill. And one last thing if you are picky like me. Buy multiple pumps for different types of fluids so they don't mix. I'm not sure why you would try to clean them out, as that risks residue and contaminants. Another way is to pump the new stuff thru to clean the old stuff out, but we're back to the problem of $20 dollar quarts. This isn't such a big deal on farm implement gearboxes and cheap gear oil, but with modern cars it's better to pay a little more for the right tools. When done, place them individually in a ziplock and label them with the type and weight for the next time.

I made it work without being screwed on but it was too small to fit on a motocraft 1qt oil bottle. If it fit it would easly be a 5star.

Product arrived ahead of scheduled delivery date. It fits one-quarter bottle exactly and made rear differential fruit replacement much easier and less messy. Thanks.

Works good for a rear differential on my Honda Ridgeline. Screws on the OEM oil bottle perfectly.Price is cheap!

Unit worked great to fill drive unit on my boats lower leg

Buen producto y de buen material

Too small for automobile use. Only 4 cc displacement.Firs very small containers.

excellent
