3.0 out of 5 stars Decent Tool, Messy, November 14, 2010

I bought this tool to change my manual transmission fluid. It sucked up the new MTF fine, but as soon as you turn it so that the back is not facing up, the MTF would seep out from the back. At least on the 8th Gen. Civic it is impossible to get to the fill hole without the back of this suction gun facing sideways or down, so it got very messy with MTF getting all over the gun and dripping to the floor. It did get the job done, and for the price you probably would not find anything better. On second thought maybe getting an extra long hose would do the trick by letting you keep the back of the gun up, but at that point you might as well just use a funnel and just pour the MTF into the hose.

However, if you need this tool just for sucking liquids out, then it works great for that.

Bought this to change the transmission and transfer case fluids in my Jeep. This job took twice as long because of this tool. The action is stiff and sticky, and it's very hard to compress the plunger in a confined space under a vehicle. Lying on the ground, because of this stickiness, there was no way I could stay under the vehicle to fill the gun. Thus, I had to climb out every time to refill it. Doing this, you'll get fluid spilled around too. Also, fluid was leaking out of the back end of the unit; obviously the seal didn't hold up to the Redline MTF and ATF 4 I used. This tool is cheap, but you'll throw it away when you are finished. Better to spend the money on a better product that you'll keep to use again. This is among the worst tools I've ever bought, that I intended to keep for many uses.

it did what it was supposed to do. it would be nice if they included a reducer to connect a smaller tube. the suction tube is quite large and sometimes hard to manuever inside the object you are draining. worth the price though.
