How To Make A Quality Vacuum Oil Extraction Chamber

[@ProjectFarm]

What a terrific tool to have in the garage or shop! Thank you for the great tutorial on how to build one of these. Thanks again!

[@electronicsNmore]

Thanks Todd!

[@KayvanCrafted]

I made one too, simpler and no vacuum pump needed, actually, I used an air compressor! watch my tutorial.

[@AThreeDogNight]

That is a life saving design for me because I'm disabled. I'd almost rather take a beating than to change my oil. It will put me in the bed for several days, so I definitely have to build one, somehow. Thank you so much for this design.

[@stevedovel]

Brilliant idea! Perfect for changing the oil in my outboard boat engine! Not possible to use a drain pan and the old mechanical pump I use now takes forever. Thanks for the video.

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad you enjoyed it Steve!

[@miaginger146]

I don’t understand why anybody has given thumbs down to your video. By far one of the best I have seen, on this topic. Thank you.

[@electronicsNmore]

KZbin has a lot of very nice and appreciative viewers like you, but also a large number of undesirables and haters. Glad you liked my video! Thanks for watching

[@blakeybw]

Outstanding, this pump can be used to remove gear oil from gear boxes that don't have drain plugs.

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad you enjoyed the video! :-) Please share.

[@justintothetruth]

🥇 unfortunately rarely get to see one of your videos 🛠But when I do I’m very impressed with your effort in explaining everything so well. 🔧 Thank you Luke Clear Ps please continue to boast about your great deals you get It add a lil comedy to your video Which is good for you sterile style It also makes you human That’s the type of being that we’re expecting to have explain stuff. 😁

[@dwpetty3723]

You could also you this to push oil back into a system by using compressed air on the vacuum pump side, for ex. filling and bleeding your brakes. excellent video.

[@electronicsNmore]

Yes, but it's much faster to fill pouring the oil. Thanks for watching! Please share.

[@scruffydude1]

outstanding video my friend great illustrations and in detail, very well explained Thank you . thumbs up

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad you enjoyed it! Please be sure to share. Thank you

[@orleydoss3171]

Awesome video. The engine oil removal was a great example of the many uses for this tool... 👍

[@electronicsNmore]

Glad you enjoyed it! Unfortunately there are Dimwits that don't understand how useful this tool is. Thanks for watching

[@kinger557]

Simple and effective, thanks! 👍

electronicsNmore Your creation is great👍🏻

[@electronicsNmore]

Thanks Ed!

[@techsir8866]

Not to be a negative Nancy, but most oil filters are on the bottom of the car. This is still a solid useful tool. If someone has one of the Toyotas that has the oil filter on top, this is a solid game changer.

[@electronicsNmore]

You're not sucking the oil out of the oil filter you're sucking it out of the dipstick which goes to the bottom of the oil pan

[@sobamani1244]

Thanks 🙏

[@SteveSolaka]

I'm an Automotive Technican , on cars with drainbolt or not on Trans, Sometimes you have to open pan to clean & Replace trans filter, some cars may not have an aluminum oilpan, case Housing setups. Draining engine oil, depending on lifting, angles vs level & oil pan shape, some old cars have 2 drainplus.

[@Granite]

Neat concept.

[@joelgodin1714]

Cool, now if you can come up with a way to change the oil filter without getting under the car, that would be gold.

[@electronicsNmore]

You got that right. :-) Thanks for watching!

[@on-site4094]

Great little pump to have in the garage. does your wife know your using her kitchen container 😝

[@electronicsNmore]

🤣 I bought it. Thanks for watching! Be sure to share.

[@andrewcliffe4753]

I just got a plastic drink bottle and hooked up to a shopvac intake using the top cone from a soft drink bottle works fine

[@electronicsNmore]

That can also work, unless the suction is too strong and implodes the bottle.

[@electronicsNmore]

@@willem2544 Were you born a lowlife? Or become one later in life? Just curious, since you posted a wise @ss comment.

[@maheshmane46]

Vacuum chamber is designed and constructed with proper safety and engineering

[@TaintedMojo]

Neat idea but seems to be a bit small volume wise

[@electronicsNmore]

It's ideal for small engines, draining out some oil to add additives, or draining other oils/fluids.

[@007mwn]

Great Video the Vacuum regulator is key! Any idea how much vacuum a garden sprayer can handle?

[@LukeTeel]

There has to be a technical name for this and there also just be a pre made one you can purchase online.

[@electronicsNmore]

They may sell something similar.

[@freeaudiobooks7469]

I love u

[@merlin1346]

I use a goat milking machine, just remove the teat gland and insert a 7mm copper brake pipe and you can then suck hot fluids. They are on aliexpress 👍

[@belavet]

I'm going to ask a stupid question lol. Is it ok to do full oil changes on a vehicle like this? Os there any harm in Botond draining it through the drain valve? My driveway is pretty steep and I don't hav a flat place to work, so I end up taking my vehicles to valvoline. With a coupon that's about $55. I'm thinking I could save $25+ per oil change doing it this way and it's safe because I'm not lifting the vehicle at all.

[@electronicsNmore]

Using this method you'll get "ALMOST" all the oil out if the engine oil is warm. Replacing 95-98% of the oil is fine, the small amount of old oil will mix with the new. Make sure you change the filter. Thanks for watching! Be sure to share the video.

[@silverdropstang]

2 years later, how did this hold up? Did the Walmart container last?

[@electronicsNmore]

It's still good, but I did have a hairline crack on the lid where one of the holes were drilled. I used a larger rubber washer. :-)

[@silverdropstang]

@@electronicsNmore Nice!! Just found this video. Will be doing this tomorrow. Thanks for fast response! Will sub🤙👍👍

[@toddstevens657]

What size Vac Pump are you using? You mentioned 14" Hg on the Relief Valve. What's the Flow rate though?

[@electronicsNmore]

Robinair single stage pump

[@kellyokamoto1604]

Do you recommend sticking with a plastic container or is a glass one ok if that's all I have? I know drilling holes is gpin

[@electronicsNmore]

Heavy glass should work, but I'm not a big fan of glass because it can break easily. Thanks for watching!

[@jotu173]

OK video, but seems like you built it way to small. Most people want to COMPLETLY empty whatever fluid and in cars) your chosen capacity is simply not enough. I am also curious as to how long in REAL time (NOT time lapsed, like you showed) it took to remove that oil.

[@bassreaper7779]

I don't think his intentions for this particular vacuum chamber were to be able to drain the entire oil pan. He did say he could use it to remove a small amount of oil to add an additive. If you want to drain the entire oil pan I would suggest you make one out of a 5-gallon bucket, and use a Shop-Vac for the vacuum source. This one would be very useful to drain the oil out of a small engine like a lawn mower, or outboard.

[@arontesfay2520]

What is the danger of using this to extract gasoline?

[@electronicsNmore]

Dangerous. The vacuum pump will have gas fumes all around it, and a spark from the motor can ignite the fumes.

[@arontesfay2520]

@@electronicsNmore Makes sense. So I guess use one of those manual vacuum pumps instead? I really don't need a deep vacuum. Just enough to suck out gasoline.

[@davidgaylord2035]

when inserting the hose down the dipstick tube how do you when hunting for the bottom of the pan that you are at the bottom and the hose has not curled back up and that you are not on the bottom

[@electronicsNmore]

Make sure the natural curl of the PE tube is going DOWN. When you feel it stop, don't push further.

[@ericmarsh5485]

Also, you can get a pretty close estimate using your dipstick as a gauge for length, mark on the tubing, then go a bit further.

[@SteveSolaka]

The best oil change is when you drain the oil from the drain plug! This is dumb to do oil change in this manner.

[@electronicsNmore]

Good luck removing the drain bolt from an inboard boat. LOL You have a drain bolt for power steering? You prefer to remove the pan from your vehicle's transmission to drain some fluid? Please, think carefully before posting comments.

[@jasoncox4392]

This is false actually. I have drained my pan from the plug and then extracted up to 500ml more with an extractor on many different vehicles. Depends on the car and how level it is.

[@SteveSolaka]

electronicsNmore Your creation is great👍🏻 but The way I change my motor oil, I do it with a fully warmed up motor, I open the drainpug & have filter out while draining, letting it drain completely & sometimes I put a 1/4 to 1/2 of new oil to Flush out old oil, My 94 Celica gt, 4 cylinder, Race motor, I have to begin mynmotor project, dealer gave me main bearigs but weren't tge right ones, I got to plastic gauge each & every vearing this time & use oil pressure gauge instead of the factory switch that doesn't light when oil pressure not safe due to loose main bearings, made in Japan. Getting New pistons again Forged, adding supercharger soon, looking around 500 HP , factory computer, power limited, automatic Transmission, Distributor, I definitely adding 4 coils, either reprogram factory computer or see if I can add a secondary computer for engine alone, main computer controls Transmission. This Celica is My Hobby😎 all wheel drive after.

[@SteveSolaka]

electronicsNmore for Powersteering Your Supposed to remove to the lowest point, & sometimes to start tge vehicle to entirely drain out the system from tubes & coolers.

[@SteveSolaka]

For cars that you care & appreciate you got to go the extra mile, for cars that you don't care to much of, just suckit from the resvoir. Do you know that the Powersteering systems in most cars take 2quart or more. 3,4. So the resvoir is not much
