Will it pump used oil from my car

I am not sure about that higher viscosity liquid. I use it for gasoline and it works great. If I had to guess, it may pump the oil, but at a much slower rate. Good luck!

no. it will not pump thick oil. not even 5w15. I tried and it will not. But it works great for thin oils like K1, gas, diesel, gas etc. I am getting a second for backup and to use in other areas so I dont have to look for it each time I need it.

since you drop the body of the pump into a gas can for normal usage (pumping gasoline) there is no inlet hose small enough to insert and extract oil from an engine. Even if the body were modified to take an inlet hose there is no guarantee the heavier viscosity of oil would not damage the pump.

Kind of funny that Amazon bundles this pump with the Redline oils. Lucky most car people know what to look for.

Yes - it does pump gasoline. This not a recommendation. Use all precautions.

I would imagine it would as it's about same viscosity of heating oil. The pump works great.

try it in a car and boat, run engine so oil was warm, it got primed and pump about a qt. or more very slow and stop pumping, maybe alright for a lawnmower. I think it is junk for a little more money you can get one that works good, If you still need this one I will sell my for 1/2 price only used three time.

won't hurt, but most pumps come prelubed. just don't run it without water ever and oil.

Take it to your local service station where you get your oil changed ask them to rid of it of it with there used oil products old oil ,filters and ect

this pump should work. Caution you must mix your gas with 2 cy oil. I do not know what rato to use.

I am not sure only used with gas. It is a pretty small pump so I doubt it would work for very long with oil.

Should be just fine with an oil injection pump. There is no ratio to worry about since your not pre-mixing it with gasoline.

I used it while it was full of oil. That should not make a difference. The saver only flushes the water out of the pump.

I have been using the pump for a marine application. Which I pump through the dipstick. It takes about 20 minutes for 6 quarts. I found that running the engine for 10 minutes before pumping helps speed the process up significantly when the oil is warm

If its oil injection it will work fine since the pump regulates the oil amount delivered to the fuel. This oils has 24:1 to 10o:1 mix ratio.

My experience was that this is not a very powerful pump. I used it to pump oil to a tank at a higher level and it quickly burned out. It comes with a screen to filter out debris but if the screen gets clogged it might over-stress the pump.

I have easily pumped dirty SAE 30 engine oil with this pump.. So it should have no trouble with ATF

I don't see why this wouldn't work as long as you don't get fluid on oil seals of pump.

This is a gasoline pump but diesel is less volatile and astringent so it will be fine. Just remember that these pumps are primarily for pressure and won't have a great deal of volume. The most important thing to remember is that gas is extremely flammable with sparks and you need to be mindful of your wiring and switch.
