ABSTRACT:
A portable system for removing oil from an oil containing device. The system includes a pump, fluid conduit apparatus, and power conduit apparatus. The pump pumps the oil out of the oil containing device. The fluid conduit apparatus is in fluid communication with the pump and with the oil containing device. The power conduit apparatus is in electrical communication with the pump. The pump is in fluid communication with a receptacle for the oil, with circumferential threads around the pump threadably engaging a pre-existing threaded hole in the lid of the receptacle. The pump further has a lower vent hole in fluid communication with the receptacle and an upper vent hole in fluid communication with the lower vent hole and the ambient, which allows the pump to be self-venting. The fluid conduit apparatus comprises a tube that is in fluid communication with the pump and interfacing apparatus disposed on the tube and in fluid communication with the oil in the oil containing device. The interfacing apparatus comprises either an elongated rigid tube positioned through an oil filler hole in the oil containing device or a spigot threadably engaging into a drain hole in the oil containing device and remaining thereat, while replaceably engaging the tube. The power conduit apparatus comprises a cable that is in electrical communication with the pump and a cigarette lighter adapter that engages a cigarette lighter.
