    1. Pinch the outlet hose (or hold your finger over the end)
    2. Squeeze the bulb and release.
    3. Wait 1/2 second and unpinch the outlet hose.
    Starts everytime with only 1 squeeze of the bulb.

    Can I use this to suction transmission fluid? Thank you

      It only worked two time on gasoline so I doubt it would work with tranny fluid. Thanks for watching

    Would it work the same in reverse, from the tank to the gas can?
    I had to top off the transmission oil and I overfilled it. This seems like a good easy way to remove the extra oil.

      Yes it would, if it would work more than twice. I am going to make another video for this item that stopped working after 2 usages.

    Definitely junk, just had to buy it to get gas out the pressure washer I was trying to return to HF. Was out in the parking lot sweating to get gas out. Just called it quits and left lol. Try again tomorrow

    I ought the more expensive Pitsburg Multi-use pump at Harbor Freight. It stopped after the first (frustrating) use. Harbor FReight would not exchange it so I bought this cheaper Pittsburg pump. Still junk - It is not very cooperative either and I'm not going to use my mouth - the old fashioned way.

      Yeah, I gave up on that kind and bought the one you jest back and forth in the tank and had no problems at all except stopping the flow which is no problem if you are going to use the whole tank. Thanks for your reply
