What do you use to change diff/tcase/gearbox oil?
Moderators: toaddog, TWISTY, V8Patrol, Moderators
Get one of those pumps you use around the garden for spraying weeds etc.Remove the wand and the restrictor in the line which is near the handle.Fill the container with desired diff or gearbox oil.Put end of hose in filler hole.Pump the handle to pressurise and the oil will be transfered to the diff,gearbox.

i use a hand pump i brought at kmart 17 years ago,screws onto a 5 litre oil bottle(or 1 litre for that matter).i have about a metre of clear hose on it and just sit by the side of the ute and pump away.works well and been using it for years and when you have blown as many holden diffs and gearboxes as i have over the years it makes it easy.used the sauce bottle about twice when i was 17 and thought f**k this, there must be an easier way.

Then buy a screw on plunger pump. Had mine for 15 years. Filled 100's of diff, gearboxes etc. Paid for itself over and over

I agree thats as simple as it get's takes less than a minute to fill a gearbox, diff or transfer and the oil works out heaps cheaper buying in 20ltr drums.
