Good oil siphon pump?

[Crusader]

I looking for an oil siphon pump that works in a dip stick hole preferably one that works off batteries say AA's if possible. So I can use beefy NiMH cells.

My 91 4runner has a goofy oil pan that traps a fairly significant amount of oil that can't be drained etc.

I'd rather spend say 50% more money on a vastly superior product.

I've got one of these and it works great. No batteries needed.

I had issues with my liquivac - needed a lot more pumping and pulled slower after two or three uses. I bought the equivalent from tractor supply company and it is lasting much better.

The pump on my topsider went bad, quickly.

Look at the BOATFIX.COM website for pumps boaters use to siphon or pump oil via dipstick. Quite common. Some nice electric ones use a pump with clips to your normal 12V battery and a bucket similar to a 5 gallon joint compound bucket for the oil.

I think anything that runs on small batteries may not have much power.

Mityvac Fluid Evacuator Plus 7201 is probably the best for less than $65 at Amazon. I had it more than 4 years, my brother in-law and I used it more than two dozen times without any problem. I had Topsider before I bought Mityvac, it failed after 2-3 uses.

Mityvac Fluid Evacuator works very well on MB, BMW and other German cars & SUV's but may not work well on American and Japanese vehicles.
