Jabsco Marine Porta Quick Oil Changer
By J. Becker
This oil changer has work quite well compared to the others I have tried including small electric pumps and hand operated. I have a sailboat marine desiel engine that only holds about 4 quarts of oil, so this is a bit overkill, but it made my oil changing mere minutes!Thus far it appears well made and very effective. My one complaint is the "clamps" required to connect the tubing together are plastic and weak. I ended up using stainless hose clamps which worked much better.All-in-all I would recomment this product for anyone spending any amount of time changing oil in a marine situation.

Jabsci 17800
By J. Tajadod
In terms of pure suction of the oil it did a great job.However, I found the suction hose provided in the box to be too short. Also, the gizmo they put to attach the 2 hoses is a cheap choice. It really doesnt take much to put a secure coupler to attach two hoses together and we shouldnt have to do that oursleves after paying almost $200 for this item, the poor connection of the two hoses caused loss of suction.Also a minor point, there was no comprehensive direction flow on the switch i almost had the oil squirt all over my face by flicking the switch in the wrong direction.

Does the job, be careful when you move it.
By M. Reith
Works but an engineering joke. The heavy pump is mounted on an ultralight bucket. If you try to lift up the pail by its handle, the heavy pump on the top inverts the bucket and spills dirty oil all over your garage. Poor design. The instructions are very basic and my not satisfy.Does the pump work? yes, but I would not recommend this to a hobbyist with little experience working with engines. I am still trying to figure out how to fix this so it doesn't turn over.
