Well, yesterday it was rather inclement here in Southern New England so I devoted the day to futzing around in the barn with the Cobra.
I had gathered all the necessary fluids and such to change out the differential gear
oil and the trannie gear
oil and the brake fluid.
After getting the car up on jack stands, and draining the rear diff
oil, I realized that my old hand pump was just not adequate to pump in the 80W Moroso Climbing Gear Lube.
It was a combination of the length of tube and the age and poor condition of my old boat fluid evacuation pump that I was trying to use.
After suffering thru the diff oil change and lots of muttering and pumping...(there were expetives as well
) I did manage to get the new diff oil in (after about 500 pumps or more... sheesh)
In any case, afterwards, a friend told me there are these oil suction guns which according to him work dandy for trannie and differential oil installations. Some of them hold a pint or more.
Anyone have any feedback on these suction guns or is there something even better?
