Ultimate Oil Speed Pump at Lidl 24/09

Saw this today & thought I'd share. £9.99

Any experience with it from other forum members when it's been on offer previously?

I tried it once Nick to fill a small auto transmission and had some amusing results.

The motor is really quite weak for the job and the battery cable is a feeble coiled type,
the result of which being the motor overheated. As the battery cable was not able to handle the load, the pos and neg melted into each other and the whole thing went up in flames within 3 minutes of use. Laughing
Even though the oil had been warmed to assist the pump Rolling Eyes

I'm sure others will have used it without issue but just don't expect too much, and never leave one unattended when in use. Thumbs Up

There’s a thread on FullFatRR too for this and the consensus is that it’s not recommended. 👍

That melts too but hopefully it doesn't burst into flames. Laughing

Tis type of vane pump has a metal housing and metal vanes rubbing against the housing, this produces small particles of zinch that come off the housing. Pump OK for emptying, but not for filling!
