Is this a good one? I need to buy one this week. Anyone sell it cheaper than this? This is my first boat that did not have outboards so I do not have a the oil changer. It will be for a 525 EFI if that makes any difference. Also what do you do about the alligator clips if you have billet covers over the battery? Can you get a small battery just for the oil changer? Thanks Mike

jabsco or sure flo are good units I have both also have a couple of the pump oil extractors ( look like a bicycle tire pump on steroids) that work great and are about 1/2 the price

Mine works great, I use it for boat and my cars, never had a problem you can pump the old oil back in empty jugs with reverse. I used mine one time with a battery charger when I didn't have a battery. Just make sure to warm it up first

They work mint and well worth it. Do you have the hose permently attached to the drain plug? The only thing I dont like is the impeller goes bad often.

When are you coming for the test flight? Mike
