[AT] Oil Vacuum- Common sense solution?

[deanvp]

I've also used a oil pump driven by a electric hand drill.

If you could thin it down using a non-flammable liquid, a Shop Vac might
work. However, Shop Vac motors are known to be a bit dangerous when sucking
flammable fluids.

It's better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

This is tractor related: Does anyone have a clever way to suck oil out of a
sump or other confined space where you cannot get to the drain plug?

I saw a "Liquivac" device on the internet for 60.00, but I already have a
small "Mighty-Vac" system used for bleeding brakes and was wondering if I
could make that work.

Anyone done this or something similar to evacuate oil? Possibly even using a
shop-vac?
