OK Guys, who has the best solution to draining the oil from an inverted Pantera ZF ?? ( dont start with "take it out and turn it upside down - thought of that one ! ) Frank
I just used it to drain a saltwater fish tank that was a tight fit in a wall. Since you're not having to lift the fluid above the inlet, it doesn't take much suction and the siphon effect keeps the impeller from cavitating. Whether the transmission oil viscosity would cause a problem, I don't know. Come to think of it, you might just be able to siphon the oil??Gregg said:John, that is an interesting suggestion but I am highly skeptical that it will work. Have you tried it or know someone who has? I don't think the pump from Lowes would be strong enough to pull the gear .

cheers Jack.
