Gear oil

Is there a tool to put gear oil in? Something with a crank or better yet something that hooks to an air compressor? The squeeze bottles and the hand pump are getting old.

Guy at work ordered a suction gun by mistake.

Basically a grease gun without the pump, just a plunger and a nozzle. Works like a giant syringe.

Perfect for squirting 80w140 through that little hole...

the last time i needed gear oil i just bought a 5 gallon bucket of it and got a pump that goes on top of the bucket... the pump came from Tractor supply and i got the oil from autozone...

Got hodgie has got it. You can buy 5 gallons cheaper overall than buying quarts. The pump goes right on top of the bucket and pumps it in.

yea if i remember right the 5 gallon bucket of oil was less than 50$....

edit... it has gone up a couple dollars...
