What is your favorite fluid x-fer tool??? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I guess I'm on a roll...or rampage maybe?

And another thing...I need a decent fluid transfer tool. Harbor freight is good for some things, and a friggin' dump for Chinese-built CRAP, apparently...

What I though would work well (and should have!) is a large hand-held, cylinder pump (think of a syringe that holds near a quart, with a hose fitting on the in/out end, and a "T" handle on the plunger end). The one I have would be perfect, except this Harbor Freight - Chinese POS leaks past the internal plunger piston seal so readily that after only just a couple cycles it is squirting as much oil out the back to run down my arm an drip off my elbow as is going through the hose!!

I have an air compressor, but a pump like the ones used at the oil-change places would be way overkill...yet, something like that would be good. (Can you tell I've just recently done a complete fluid change, one filled with frustration over some JUNK tools??? Grrrrr.

)

What say U?
