EWK 6.5L Pneumatic/Manual Oil Extractor, Oil Change Pump for Automotive

Worked exceptionally well my only advice is that look at some of the videos for usage for some of the finer details. It might be apparent to some on attaching the hose and what that little lock ring is around the canister, threaded canister receptacle, and purge valve. If you know these things, you're good to go if you need a little bit of a tutorial of how they work in a video or two should get you there otherwise solid piece of equipment, it made very quick work of an oil change on a 2012 Land Rover LR four given the filter is accessible from the top and it already has a built-in siphon tube that goes to the bottom of the oil pan and connecting to that is really simple no need to remove the skid plates and lift the car and do all signs of other nonsense. Just plug-in play really

So easy to use. Very effective! I highly recommend! I bought this for my Audi Q5 and it was so easy to use. When the oil was in the engine, it was easy to slip the end of the hose further than it needed to go, thereby not being at the very bottom of the engine. But when you pull it back a bit and slip back down, you can feel it hit bottom. It did an amazing job of pulling ALL the oil out. There was ZERO mess or oil spilled. It was so easy! And it saved me &500 on an Audi oil change! Again, I highly recommend!

Best money I have spent lately. I always do my own maintenance on my cars and truck. Past several years I have not looked forward to the Transmission fluid and filter change. Seems that the manufacturers decided that we really don't need drain plugs on a transmission pan. It is a real hassle changing the filter and fluid with a full pan of fluid to deal with while you are laying on your back in the garage. I used this tool this morning to remove the fluid from the 4L60E transmission in my Chevy truck. So easy, I couldn't believe it. Remove the dipstick, insert the smallest tube in this kit into the dipstick tube a length equal to the dipstick. Connect the tube to the main tube on the extractor. I pumped about 6 times and the fluid began to flow. I stood there watching amazed at how it worked. Never touched the pump again. It took about 15 minutes and pumped 5 quarts and 10 ounces from my transmission. Once, it started to gurgle indicating that the pan was empty, I removed the tube from the truck and let it completely drain into the canister. Then I measured the removed amount to the quantity above and refilled my transmission with that much new fluid. I elected to not change the filter. If you wanted to change the filter, you could drop an empty pan after using this tool. My manual states that 5 quarts is required for a pan drop, so I know that I got all the fluid out. This about half of the fluid that my transmission holds in total. My fluid was nice and red and smelled OK so half is good enough for me. If you want to go another step, do the procedure again in a couple of weeks. I highly recommend this tool and if it ever fails, I will be buying another! The size is just perfect for what I needed, and the canister is heavy duty, appears very durable and everything connects easily. It just works like a charm!

Product works well and does what it's supposed to. My initial time using, could have gone a little better with additional instructions. Once I got the hang of it, it worked as desired.

Worked Really good on my Audi Q5 2022, it was quick and so easy. So much better then getting under the car took 15-30 min tops. It is thick and durable. I didn't get oil anywhere. It was easy to remove the oil from it into a bottle. It's not that heavy, but will last for years hopefully. Stable No leaks or nothing.

Nice unit, worked well for me but only tried manual mode. Had to use it to empty a fuel tank, took several cycles at 6.5L a pop, but no issues other than it being hard to tell if gas was flowing. Instructions say not to use it with fuel and other volatile stuff - works fine, just make sure the lawyers aren't watching;)

Nothing about this was easy. This is my second attempt at an oil extractor for doing oil changes on my boat. I decided to replace the one I had (and no longer used) hoping the compressor attachment would make it relevant. It did not. It was worthless. Possibly it’s my own application but the directions and product description didn’t cover applicable restrictions. I also don’t just willy nilly things and made sure to watch lots of YouTube videos on how to use this pump before using it. And my application is straight forward. Securing the black plastic cap to the reservoir was my first challenge. It was so tight, I thought for a minute I had the wrong part. It required channel locks to get it on and twisted and then channel locks again to take it off. Getting down to the bottom of the oil pan was easy in my 5.7L merc. The smallest diameter tube was the one and it’s a hard stop as soon as you hit the bottom of the pan. Hooked up my 165 psi Dewalt pancake compressor, flipped the valve on and waited…nothing. Kept waiting…nothing. My DIY friend/mechanic was with me and expressed concern I was running the compressor so long it might cause the canister to suck in and implode on itself making a huge mess. I reminded him we had no oil yet so we let the compressor run and eventually the compressor ran out of pressure without drawing a single drop of oil. Read the directions which don’t have a lot of detail, but it’s also a simple operation that really only works one way. Confident we were doing it correctly, just like in all the videos I watched, we gave up on the compressor. Le sigh :-( New plan…the hand pump, same as the one I had hoped to “upgrade” from. After a 15 or so pumps we saw our first sign of oil coming up the tube. I was elated but also disappointed that we couldn’t get this far with the compressor attachment. My disappointment grew as I noticed the extreme slow rate of oil coming out of the motor. We pumped and we pumped and we pumped and after 45 mins decided we might or might not have got it all and went on to the filter. There really is no reliable way to know if the pump has finished the job. You can’t see in the canister and you can’t see to the bottom of the oil pan (obviously) The filter was in such a god-awful awkward place we were unable to get it with the wrenches we had so I ordered a different wrench from Amazon and put the project on hold for a couple days. Filter arrived two days later, but now it’s Tuesday, so i waited another couple days till the weekend. Being very concerned on our uncertainty if we had all the oil out, I decided to try the compressor again. Nope, no luck. So I went ahead and did the hand pump and pulled more oil out. Still not certain if I had all the oil, my concern succumbed to frustration and went ahead and Replaced the filter anyway. In total, I spent almost two hours waiting and wondering if I had all the oil out of the pan. The frustration with the non functional air compressor, and the black cap I have to use extreme force to get on and off, and the unbelievable amount of time spent waiting for the oil to come out, but no way to know if I got it all really soured my experience with this product and reminded me why I stopped using the previous one I had bought. I’ll continue to look for other solutions to do my own boat oil changes.

The EWK 6.5L Oil Extractor is a really handy tool for anyone who prefers DIY oil changes or needs a clean way to extract automotive fluids. What I liked: Dual operation (pneumatic & manual): The flexibility is a big win. The pneumatic option makes the job fast and effortless if you have an air compressor, while the manual pump works well when you don’t. Clean and mess-free: This is probably the biggest advantage—no crawling under the car or dealing with drain plugs. It keeps everything neat and contained. Good capacity: The 6.5L tank is enough for most standard oil changes, so you don’t have to stop midway. Easy to use: Setup is straightforward, and the included tubes fit well into dipstick tubes on most vehicles. Things to consider: Manual pumping takes effort: It works, but it’s definitely slower compared to using compressed air. Tube flexibility: The hoses could be a bit more rigid—sometimes they require adjusting to stay in place. Best for compatible vehicles: Works great on cars designed for top-side oil extraction, but not ideal for every engine setup. Overall: A great investment for DIY maintenance. It saves time, reduces mess, and makes oil changes way more convenient—especially if you use the pneumatic feature. Not perfect, but definitely worth it for the price.

Pulls the oil out with ease, left about 200 mls in my car, I'll accept that. It struggled on my wife's car, the tube would not reach the bottom of the sump but I've used a crap one of these before so I have silicon tube that I attached to the tube that came with the "sucker" It settles in the hot oil into the bottom of the pan, job done. No more fighting on the ground with a sump plug, I'm getting too old for that and I've got four (family) cars to look after.

I finally had opportunity to use this AWESOME oil extractor , IT WORKS real good and real fast. I regret not getting this one years ago, it beats my older manual pump one hands down for both speed and ease of use as well as oil capacity. I highly recommend this to anyone in need of a easy to use fast oil extractor !!

5*

Very good purchase. Highly recommend if you got an Audi - my oil changes are a breezes. Hardest part is where to drop my oil off

This works very well. First time I used this to suck the oil out then raised the car and pulled the drain plug, nothing came out. Jetta, and Buick. Much less mess changing oil. Now I use it for my boat, lawnmower, snowblower.
