    Favorite Transmission Fluid Pump?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I'm getting ready to change the fluid on my 01E (have some sintofluid for the job) and my rear diff. I was looking to grab a fluid transfer pump, but pretty much all the pumps I find have a poor rating. I'm looking for a good fluid pump that will help me get this job done with little to no effort. Sharing is caring, share up those links for your favorite pumps everyone.

    My favorite pump is someone else's labor

    I've used a cheap Harbor Freight transfer pump and it was ok. Next time I have to do something like that, I'd suggest doing what I saw before and rigging up a fluid reservoir above the vehicle somewhere (possibly hang from hood?) with a line down to the trans. That way gravity does all the work for you.

    Didn't even think about a drill pump. This is totally the route I'm gonna take.

    I've done it before using a funnel and a long hose under the hood, but it takes forever due to the viscosity of the trans fluid. Ain't no body got time to wait like that.
