One on the left I've had for years and it use to have Merc HP lube, but shifted HP to the one on the right and put Merc new synthetic lube in the left. Used the fitting from the quart bottle pump on end of gas hose.
The big issue is finding a pump which uses a similar size line inside the tank as outside. Some of the new ones have only a 1/8 ID plastic tube. Did just have to replace the rubber valves on the larger one this year because the lube took its toll on non-vitron, but hey it cost $5 for the new parts https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...694811a43b.jpg |
Speedy, give me a ring. I’m well versed on diy gear oil pumps :)

The Gear case filler for $252.50 is just an old school metal can sprayer by design.
Mityvac which is well known for repair shop equipment sells pressure pumps that retail over $300 for refilling Transmissions... and it's just a decent pressure pot from a sprayer with a series of adapters..... trick to them all is don't run out of fluid/ add air to the refill In the shop we had the manual pump on 5 gallon and for remote servicing - it was a good lever sprayer (oil doesn't chew up the seals like chemicals/ fuel will and flows fine in warm weather)... |

It has gotten pricey. I think I paid about $170 years ago. For Bravo I drives you need their extension that threads onto the end of the quick disconnect that threads into drive or else you have to remove the zinc around propshaft.

Garden sprayer here too. Mine has a pressure dump feature that's nice to have when drive gets full and starts puking.

I have a CDI one as well it sure makes it nice over that quart pump b.s... I bought a special machined "extension" adapter from Jeff @ Harris Performance that makes it even easier to do the Bravos than any of the ones it came with. Nice to know if the pump portion goes out I can get a new one easy lol.
