Review on Lumax Fluid Pump - Gallon Capacity by Runbi Alvarez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

First check the neck of the bottle

I have ordered 3 of these oils to replace transmission and differential oil on several vehicles. All pumps worked as advertised. 1 oz per pump, long hoses and a good "clamp" on the tip to keep the hose from falling out of the fill hole. This pump is bigger and faster than most on the market. Due to the size of the pump, most of your fluid will be "lost" in the pump and tubing, so make sure you have a few extra ounces of fluid. Your success depends entirely on the size of the bottleneck. This pump is designed for 1 gallon containers, but a number of manufacturers make 1 liter bottles with the same opening size. Redline 1qt bottles have a tiny opening so small the pump stem doesn't even fit in, so you'll have to cut off the top of the bottle. It hurts and gets messy, but it works. The Pentosyn 1qt bottles have a large opening which is perfect for this pump. I consider these pumps to be disposable but I expect to use them a few times before they break or leak.
