Oil pump for transfer box

Wondered if anyone had any suggestions on a cheap pump to help me change my transfer box oil. Changing with the little bottles is a right pain so I was thinking of buying an oil pump.

Anyone have any recommendations?

I use a 500ml syringe - so for the transfer box it takes 4 and a bit loads to refill.

Easy to use, cheap to buy. I paid about £6 for mine and use it loads.

I use one of those for the gearbox and it's ideal. It seems to struggle with EP90 for some reason, so I decant into a halfords 1l bottle with a long spout for the transfer box and axles.

I use a funnel with 2m of hose on the end. Stick hose in box and then hold funnel up the side of the landy and pour in. you have to be careful as there is an obvious delay between what you are pouring in and when it reaches the box so over filling is likely I keep meaning to get a syringe but keep forgetting

I've just bought one of these.

That looks good Russ, does it work OK with EP90?

Awesome, just ordered one.

Tried with a similar thing from a garden centre but as its designed to be used with water it didnt like oil much lol. Wasnt too bad if you warmed it up a bit foirst but still a faff. Hopefully this should be ideal.

This looks a good one being all metal construction.

Well seeing two other people have taken the plunge (boom boom), I look forward to a review then I'll buy something

My method is using about two yards of garden hose with a funnel at top. In engine bay strapped with tie wrap to bonnet rod. Just pour in amount and have a beer while waiting and I pre warm m90.

I bought a weed sprayer for £10! It takes a bit of pumping to build up pressure and cut the spray bit off but it works a treat used it for diffs too!
