Oil pumps… draining and filling oil, priming?
I’m tired of messin with my POS west marine special…
I’m slowly getting my new 4500sq ft shop set up, always looking for ways to make maintenance and wrenchin more enjoyable/easier.
Do any of y’all have a proven recommendation for a HD transfer pump? I run SAE50 in my boat motors, 15w40 in several diesel trucks and tractors/machines, also would like to be able to pump 85/120 gear oil into my drives from bottom. I’ll make a carry caddy so it can roll on floor with dump reservoir or detach and set in bilge/cab etc and wire in a switch so it can be turned on or off at use point. Reversible flow would be nice so less hassle from draining to filling.

something like this^^
I know the engine drain/fill is easily accomplished, it’s the filling of the gear oil in most concerned about.
on a side note… anyone using a pump like this or similar as pre start primer for your engines?
