Oil Pumps £12.99 al Lidl

[daibevan]

AS title. I've had mine for ages & it works well. Just warm up the oil first & have a large enough container to drain it into. I use an old Halfords 7L oil catcher & can just take it straight to the tip.

Showing on their website, also their battery conditioner which can be OK - just does not reset after a power cut. Also a plasma cutter if you're into cutting sheet metal!

A picture of your new car, Nice. I have just bought my wife a 2006 metalic Red (Not opal) one for a very reasonable price. MoT yesterday only a couple of silly advisory. Anyway the plasma cutter. Do you know if it run off gas or an air compressor?

Would i be correct in thinking these are not much use if your battery is not in the engine bay? Or are the cables long enough.

Cables are pretty long

You can connect to the positive jump start connection under the bonnet of you can’t get to the battery...

Hahaha, I got it straight away!!!!

Leave the engine running to keep the battery charge up when you suck the oil out.

I would be inclined to ensure the sump nut is also fully removed to ensure all oil is removed

Air compressor

I bought the Plasma cutter and the battery charger.

Thought the Plasma cutter was faulty as it would spark up for 1/4 of a second then nothing, didn't realise it was me not moving it fast enough, in the end takes about 3-4 seconds to cut 6 inch line in 2mm steel @15 amps, very happy with it.

My Ctek charger is playing up, will only charge to 12.9v, so i bought the Lidl one, that is working great.

Kinda defeats the object of sucking the oil out.

Running without oil

I Know,your'e joking
