FYI, you need to use the extensions, to reach the bottom of the oil pan, ill try it works like a charm. When I was watching your video I was thinking please don’t force the hose you’re going to break it.
That is an extension and needs to be used to reach the bottom of the oil pan. It is a smaller diameter so that it can reach all the way to the bottom of the pan. I have the same extractor but without the compressor function. Had all the oil out of our diesel Mercedes in just a couple minutes with just about a half dozen strokes of the pump. Edit....Did I see toward the end of the video that you used the extension? If so, forget what I said earlier...good job. Works great and my Mercedes has the filter on top so easy job to change both.
the. The problem is not that he learns from his mistakes, it is that he leads the ignorant to fall into the same mistake,the oil filter needs to be changed
You still have to get under the car and change the oil filter unless you have a car that has a oil filter on top then it makes sense. If you’re looking to stay clean that’s not gonna happen when you change out the oil filter under the car you’re going to get dirty, this sucking the oil out is kind of pointless.
Very true. In my case though, I still have to get under the car to change the filter, but I no longer have to unscrew the skid plate, unscrew drain plug (getting oil all over my hand), then screw the skid plate black on… so I’m gonna try one of these
Okay umm you don’t have a top mount oil filter. Did you not think to change it? Adding new oil and not changing the filter could potentially cause you to have issues down the road.
There is one, not made by EWK, but it's called an Airlift, you can vacuum test for leaks and also vacuum fill your coolant. czcams.com/video/_WCRcuCZI50/video.html
Purchased the same extractor and I don't think the measurement is correct. Prior to using it I got a 1 quart measuring cup and poured water into so I could mark off the the quarts. However each quart I pored into it was exactly at the 1 liter mark
Does anyone know if this thing is stronger than the Mityvac? I have the 8qt Mityvac pump which is similar but it doesent have the air hose connection. I’m thinking this one is stronger because my Mityvac imploded on me during the second use draining warm oil. The vacuum pressure actually made the entire holding tank collapse on itself. I’m thinking if this one in the video can take constant air pressure from a compressor then it should be able to hold up better than my Mityvac. The 15L model of this product looks even beefier. Sad because the Mityvac has a lot of reviews but it’s not that great for professional use .
I was wondering why he didn't replace the filter also. Looks like a Nissan Altima if so the filter is behind the dust shield of front tire on the passenger side. Maybe he forgot, didn't know or just didn't care.
Yea, I didn't have the tool to remove the clips at the time. It was a lease so, I never went back to it. I'm going to do a better detailed video with the EWK on my truck here soon.
I have the 6 Gal. Portable Electric Pancake Compressor, from Home Depot. Neither is a sponsor. Sorry for the late reply. I had no idea that people were actually watching :).
just did this on a 2014 gti fastest oil change ive ever done, this is with access to a shop with a pit. Best money ive spent in a while and so easy.

I loved this video, it's so wrong, lol.
That's incorrect- You should put the Smaller extension on to go all the way down the dip stick tube into your oil pan.

Thank you to my father in law for recommending the EWK!
Good job man, don’t bother about the haters. Learn from yr mistakes and get better
the. The problem is not that he learns from his mistakes, it is that he leads the ignorant to fall into the same mistake,the oil filter needs to be changed
The rod is only to clean the tubes out when debris gets stuck in them. As you can feel the tubes are rigid enough!😁😂🤣😃
Metal piece is to clear clogs in pipe
More viscous not less! Great video. I like my vacuum approach as well. Great video. Thanks!
Thank you for the correction and the feed back!
Viscosity is the resistance to flow. You were right the first time.
Blarney Server I stand corrected - thanks. The way it sounds makes that sound wrong at first (to me)
I knew it!
oil filter? you need change oil filter as well..
You still have to get under the car and change the oil filter unless you have a car that has a oil filter on top then it makes sense.

New metode 👌👌🔧🔧
Great video. Thanks for sharing it with us
No, thank you for watching!!!
Actually good
I wish EWK can come up with radiator or transmission fluid exchanger especially on coolant that you don’t have to do burp process to the radiator.
There is one, not made by EWK, but it's called an Airlift, you can vacuum test for leaks and also vacuum fill your coolant.

I know these things do not come with instructions and that is why we look for these videos but damm!!!
Did u have problem with blue connectors on tube coming apart
What about changing that oil filter ?
A for effort Ewk is a good pump
Purchased the same extractor and I don't think the measurement is correct. Prior to using it I got a 1 quart measuring cup and poured water into so I could mark off the the quarts. However each quart I pored into it was exactly at the 1 liter mark
I hope you changed your oil filter that's where all the dirt and stuff ends up, lol.

The oil can't be too hot nor can the pressure be too high.
So can you use a pump too or what? I wanna buy this for my brother and i dont think he always has an access to an air compressor.
Yes, there is a manual pump that is attached. Sorry for the late reply. I had no idea that people were actually watching :).
How about oil filter? You don't replace the oil filter?
I was wondering why he didn't replace the filter also. Looks like a Nissan Altima if so the filter is behind the dust shield of front tire on the passenger side. Maybe he forgot, didn't know or just didn't care.

Ebert Trail
Can this be used to disperse fluid?
No, I don't think so.
The way the valve is setup it's allows vacuum. I think you would need a different set up.
How many psi is your compressor?
I have the 6 Gal. Portable Electric Pancake Compressor, from Home Depot. Neither is a sponsor.
Sorry for the late reply. I had no idea that people were actually watching :).
Wow this guy is a mechanical genius! This is a common sense project and that is lacking
And the filter?
I didn't have the clip removal tool to access it. I did it off camera later. I am going to do an oil change on my truck ( including filter) this week.
Can i bleed my brakes with this?
I have no idea.
Sorry for the late reply. I had no idea that people were actually watching :).
I have seen a bleeder attachment around, it's around 30 bucks.
Mine came with the brake bleeder attachment
Why do you do a video on something you don’t know
😄 🤣 colonoscopy .
Why do a video when you don’t know what you’re doing
Ur not a real navy seal...
Hahahaha. What?
