Anybody use a dipstick oil sucker? - Toyota Yaris Forums

My brother is sending me a 12 V oil sucker that removes oil through the dipstick hole

Does anybody have any experience and advice on using one of those?

Thanks!

I have but not on a yaris, it works well if you have a large diameter dipstick tube and the oil is hot. I'd like to tap a hole in the pan for a 3/8 tube, the lower oil pan is easy to remove.

Why not jack up the car and use the drain bolt? You are talking about motor oil, right, and not ATF? I have one of those pumps. It works great, but I basically use it for pumping oil into my rocker panels.

I have Parkinson’s and my brother thought this would be easier for me. There actually are cars you can change the oil filter without getting underneath. I don’t suppose I will use it on my Corolla but it would be great For my craftsman garden tractor which has a very complicated drain valve.

It would definitely be easier. I think you'll be pleased with the pump. They do work quite well.
